Are tNames and bNames printed on the PCB?

Im about to order my first PCB and reading [How to generate Gerbel files from Eagle][1] right now. My question is, will the tNames and bNames be printed on the pcb? Because when i click on "Silk Bottom" and "Silk Top" tabs on Eagle these two, tNames and bNames are selected along with the usual tPlace and bPlace. Can I just un-select these two so they won't be printed? [1]: https://easyeda.com/csz/How_to_export_kicad_PCB_to_gerber_files-dc8f87bca09e42b2891fbfd3cf6278e5

You can upload your Gerbers to EasyEDA however you are asking questions about the Gerbers generated from Eagle that are probably better asked in the Eagle forums before you upload them to EasyEDA. Thanks.

I was generating gerber files from the file on the link that easyeda provides.

If you can explain the relationship between these elements in Eagle and the component outline and the Prefix (a.k.a. reference designator) parts in EasyEDA PCB footprints then we can offer better advice. * If you want to experiment then the simplest thing to do is to export two versions of your Eagle Gerber file package. One with these elements selected, one without. Then open each set of Gerbers using something like the FOSS gerbv package: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gerbv/ or the EasyEDA Gerber Viewer: https://gerber-viewer.easyeda.com/?ref=easyeda.com#!id=de0a8b7dbda411e79ed5026a86b9cae7 and see which settings give what you want in the output Gerber file set.
