Thnks Jhon !

I typed worng and gsch2pcb generates as

Element(0x00 "" "" "" 0 0 120 0 3 100 0x00)
(
   ElementLine(-110 -40 -110 40 20)
       ElementLine(-110 40 -76 51 10)
       ElementLine(-76 51 100 51 10)
       ElementLine(100 51 100 -51 10)
       ElementLine(100 -51 -76 -51 10)
       ElementLine(-76 -51 -110 -40 10)
     

   Pad(-55 -6
       -55 6
       69 20 75 "1" "1" 0x00000100)
       Pad(55 -6
       55 6
       69 20 75 "2" "2" 0x00000100)
    

)-370L1-160W_On_Semiconductor(SOD123-370L1-160W_On_Semiconductor,Z501,43V)

Also gsch2pcb outputs .pcb file as 88M !

I will correct footprint name and see. I enjyou your newlib so much !


Thanks

Hiroshi
