Macaos Gallery

Click on the Save button to save the imported PCB product as a MIF file in the Gallery archive. If necessary, refresh the Product Browser list to find the product.

Macaos Enterprise for Engineers

Once everything has been specified, the product may be published to the Macaos server by clicking on the Publish button. Prior to publishing, you must go through a checklist to confirm that all of the information is correct. You can use the check boxes to help you while going through the items. You must check off to confirm that you have reviewed items before the product may be published.

The checklist also lists the items that will be reviewed by the manufacturer once an order has been placed for the product.

Once the all items in the checklist have been checked and the checklist has been closed, a product number is assigned and the publishing process begins.

Normally, when a product is published, the user's company will be the owner of the product. If your company has partners, then you may choose one of your partners to be the product owner rather than your own company. See the Product sharing chapter for more information about partner management.

Once the product has been published and the product files have been uploaded to the server, the product number is displayed and the product will be visible in the Never Ordered folder of the Product Browser, for panelization, quotation, purchase, etc.

Title block specificationsStackup drawing

While generating the product files, a stackup drawing (in PDF format), including blind and buried vias (if any), will also be generated for the product.

If desired, you may specify your own text for the various fields of the drawing's title block.
