There are 3 SO8 package footprints in PCB, SO8, SO8M and SO8W. None fit 'perfectly'.
I'll see if I can send you a footprint I've used.
Thanks. I'll try to give some more detailed feedback, but one big no-no that I've seen already is that your silk is covering pads. Noone will do any cropping for you, so you will indeed get silkscreen on your pads, which 1) potentially makes the board house unhappy because it may make a mess in their machines, and 2) makes it difficult for solder to flow over the pad.
Hmm, I assumed silk screening is applied last, as I have seen soldermasks and silkscreening covering via's. The only thing I cover IS via's ...
No. See attached file, or http://stuge.se/4.png if it gets stripped from the list.
