Plotting for JLCPCB in KiCad 9

Manufacturing

I want to create output files for JLCPCB.com, but their manual is for KiCad 8, and the options in KiCad 9 is different. Which options should I use?

Best regards

Look at the settings they suggest for 8 and apply them in 9. What options are different in 9 ?

+1 for an external plugin, especially if you go for their PCB assembly, not just bare PCB.
Very useful to see components stock, etc. Just double check the footprints rotation if it’s correct as JLC library is different than KiCAD (which results some components being rotated).
