This preview image is stored into the FPF file and displayed as preview when the FPF file is loaded
into the program Run_Photo_USB2. This preview image has a low resolution (200 x 200 pixels), so
many pixels need to be merged. In the field threshold you can set at what percentage of black dots the
merged dot will be black or transparent. On the left the preview picture is rather light, because 75% of
the pixels have to be black before the merged pixel will become black. On the right the preview picture
is rather black, because only 10% of the pixels have to be black before the merged pixel will become
black. Note: The threshold has only effect on the preview picture, not on the real plot picture.
View_FPF
View_FPF is a simple image viewer
for the plotter format FPF. You can
load files, zoom into the image with
F5
(in steps 10, 11, 14, 16, 20, 25,
33, 50, 100%) and zoom out by
pressing
F6
. You can adjust the
viewing section with the
scroll bars
on the right and below, or click in
an area in the small
preview win-
dow
.
View_FPF also contains a measur-
ing function e.g to compare the bit-
map dimensions with the original
Gerber data.
First select an appropriate magni-
fication, then move the cursor on
the first measuring point and click
with the left mouse button. The
point is displayed as P1 in the bar
at the bottom of the program (P1x =
114.983 P1Y = 67.504). Proceed
with the mouse to the 2nd measuring point and click the right mouse button. This point is displayed as
P2 in the bar at the bottom (P2x = 120.547 P2y = 67.443). Now you can read the distance in the X dir -
ection (dx = 5.564), the distance in the Y direction (dy = 0.060) and the diagonal (dz = √(dx2 + dy2)=
5.564). All values in mm.
