PLS to PNG Conversion: FAQ
What are PLS files?
The PLS format is associated with the Gerber family of extensions, functioning as a standard in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. PLS files contain representations of the bottom silkscreen of an electronic board, and are most likely created using a piece of specialized software called Eagle. The Gerber group includes several other formats — such as CMP, STC, STS and many more — all of which contain data on different segments or details of electronic boards (copper layers, solder masks, electric connections, drilling or milling details etc.).
What are PNG files?
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was designed in the mid-1990s as an improved alternative to the previously existing JPG and GIF formats, and as an extension which would be particularly web-friendly. In time, PNG files have gained a wide popularity and are highly appreciated at the moment for their ability to provide a lossless compression of images, which translates in high-quality and detailed renderings.
