Slot region missing in Gerber Drill file

Hello, I have some doubts that the **Slot Region** function is well translated in the Gerber files export. In the first screenshot (EasyEda Pro 1.7.31 macOS) there are holes visible for a connector and screw mounting point. In the second screenshot \(Cuprum Gerber Viewer\) these holes are not highlighted in blue like through\-hole pins\. This blue layer is named Drill\_PTH\_Through\.DRL\. Is this a bug and the holes won't be drilled by the PCB manufacturer because they are missing in this \.DRL file of the Gerber files or am I missing something ? I have checked a gerber file that I exported earlier this year with EasyEda Standard desktop and my holes for screw mounting were included in the file Drill\_NPTH\_Through\.DRL Thanks! ![Screenshot EasyEda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/7Yhi6boH0msdav1QhyJFbkt7hihNUtAXYa0GeA7o.png) ![Screenshot Cuprum Gerber Viewer.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/4CWH6aAYSJUiUWQHbllVaCKMKPcg6WTSzV4uzv8M.png)

Hi at present, the Slot region will be implement at Gerber_BoardOutlineLayer.GKO the PCB manufacturer should support this, JLCPCB support this if you want it at Drill\_NPTH\_Through\.DRL\, please use a Pad\, and set it Plated as No

Oh yes, I see the regions in the Board Outline Layer in my Gerber viewer. I will make sure with my PCB manufacturer that they support this way of indicating slots and mounting holes. Thank you ![Gerber Viewer Slot regions in Board Outline Layer.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/OsnZjzGxwyE991f9hDBe0MCNxuLu9pPM3Z7BkuNM.png)
