You could always open the .bmp in Paint, and then do a "Save as..." and choose .jpg as the file type. Everyone has Paint. Unless of course you're using a Mac, but then you'd probably be a graphic designer anyways...

Can you have the designer to make a fixed area for this barcode? Meaning that you must have a position for this at the very same spot, unless your barcode system can be programmed to do barcode scanning on different spots, for different products/boar

Yeah i don't know I have not seen the actual application. RTV was already discussed by the customer and they don't want it. That is what I was thinking too. It is poor design and they are trying to find a cheap way out that doesn't look cheap. Thanks

What Steve posted is what I was picturing. I think that the stencil would certainly not be as strong due to the surrounding apertures, but stencils can be replaced. Hopefully the assembly volume will allow for replacements as necessary due to the pec

take a look at what solder preforms are available. You can get ones that can be machine placed. This might allow you to add paste to areas that you cant open up around the perimeter. aj...

Don't worry about the paste print. Just omit it from the stencil. Mask over all the SMT components after reflow with water washable WSOL masking. Then run it thru the wave to deposit the solder. Then wash to remove masking. Or you could manually run

I should have mentioned... the only flux we use for the hand soldering is wire-core, no bottle flux. I think it should be a non-issue to leave the activated wire core flux residue. I'm just looking for some way to prove it to the designer.
