Update Note 04/2009: An updated version of D3T with new features is in process and should be released soon. If you have suggestions for improvements please submit them

The D3T program is a PADS PowerPCB VB script which generates a drill

accuractly positioned and edited in the design and is not tied to blind CAM processing.

- Table data and order exactly matches the NC Drill report.
- Support for slotted holes (PPCB ver4 only).
- Generated table is fully scalable -controlled by text size.
- Separate specification for text and line width.
- Table is created as a combined drawing making it easy to move and edit.
- Column for NC Drill tool list.
- Column for drill tolerances (fully editable).
- Drill size and tolerance title headings are editable.
- Can appear on any layer.
- Support for separate plated/non-plated and blind and buried drill tables.
- Operates in mils, metric or inch units.
- Drill symbols are added sequentially without gaps.
