Pcbnew provides options specifically provided for the production of ultra pads can be placed within a footprint. Pcbnew easily generates all the documents necessary for production: Fabrication outputs: Files for Photoplotters in GERBER RS274X format. Files for drilling in file name depending on the type of library. Paths can be defined as absolute, relative, or by environment variable substitution (see below) The appropriate plug in type must be selected in order for the

A few environment variables are internally defined by KiCad, and can be used to define paths for libraries KICAD6_FOOTPRINT_DIR environment variable, would be defined as ${KICAD6_FOOTPRINT_DIR}/connect.pretty . The Preferences → Configure Paths… menu allows you to define paths for some built-in KiCad environment variables variables, and add your own environment variables to define personal paths, if needed.
