Automate generation of trace and cutout .png

Matt Keeter wrote a Python script that opens up Eagle and exports a number of pngs using ImageMagick.

To get this script to run, use the following steps:

  • Save eagle_png.py into the folder where you keep your .brd and .sch files
  • Install (https://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php)[ImageMagick]
  • Create a polygon over your .brd design on the Milling layer (number 46)
  • Save your .brd file and close Eagle
  • Run eagle_png using the following command python eagle_png.py board_folder/board_name.brd
