Hi, Jerry -
I believe in simple answers, and for this case I'd suggest using
a B-sized postscript printer, of perhaps 400 dpi resolution, and
print on acetate. For any checking more accurate than this, you
should really be using CAM-type review and/or drc tools.
Do this from the Gerber data that you're sending to fabrication,
rather than plotting them seperately. Contact me offline if you
need help accomplishing this from Allegro.
Regards,
