Error: Unable to determine type. March 21, 2016, 09:06:21 pm I keep getting this error while trying to place an order on dev.dangerousprototypes.com/store/pcbsError: Unable to determine type.I placed an order about a month ago for essentially the same board design (minor modification for this one) and had no issues. My board is a zip of .grb and .drl files. Any insight into what I'm doing wrong would be appreciated. Last Edit: January 01, 1970, 01:00:00 am by Guest

Re: Error: Unable to determine type. Reply #4 – March 23, 2016, 04:44:44 am Solved the issue. In case anyone else runs into this: I used KiCAD and forgot to check the "Use Protel filename extensions" box when plotting the gerbers. Last Edit: January 01, 1970, 01:00:00 am by Guest
Re: Error: Unable to determine type. Reply #5 – May 19, 2016, 10:52:54 am Update to my original post:I've managed to locate where the required layers are listed - the 'About' page. Don't know how I missed this earlier!Anyway, in Design Spark if you re-name the layers to suit the file is then accepted. I'm still not sure why this is necessary as it hasn't caused any issues previously. Last Edit: January 01, 1970, 01:00:00 am by Guest
