kicad-3rd-party-tools VS KiBuzzard

Here are shown some third party plugins for version controlling.

If you want to use custom fonts for labels in KiCad, you can install the KiBuzzard plugin.

You could go with a cool option and use KiBuzzard a plugin for KiCad

Great project and I always respect anyone publishing their work open-source! Take a look at KiBuzzard, it's a plugin for KiCAD that allows you to insert text with a custom font within the pcb editor. The default kicad font is great for pcb layouts, but not the most pleasing to look at. I use KiBuzzard with the font Roboto for my frontpanel designs.

I used Kibuzzard: https://github.com/gregdavill/KiBuzzard

If you use the KiBuzzard plugin (which I think can just be added from the plugin manager now), you can use any symbol from any font you want, at the expense of a little more complexity. Usually easier than manually converting an image yourself though.

OP here. I added (read removed) excess vias from the previous design (See previous post .) This time, the ground plane connecting the decoupling capacitors on the battery charger and boost converter lie on one uninterrupted ground pour. Also, the board which was previously 2 layer board, has been converted to a 4 layer design. The second, third, and fourth layer have uninterrupted single ground pours, while the first layer has two, one connecting the decoupling capacitors of the battery charger and boost converter. Also, I caved in and added inverted silkscreen using KiBuzzard .

I recently started using KiBuzzard which lets you easily create inverted silkscreen labels.

silkscreen (labels are functional, but can also be beautiful! kibuzzard is nice but can't go wrong with stock text),
