When we change the design from eagle to kicad some holes disappear.

Just for reference this is how much the gerber files generated by kicad must be translated to match the eagle files image

The four "mounting board holes" are 30 mils below (the blue is the correct position): image

@xcancerberox Maybe something is 30mils in an incorrect position, how did you place them? what was your reference?

The power jack footprint in the kicad design has only circle holes but in the Eagle design has "square" holes in the "edge cuts mask":

This two problems are the only differences that I can find that have to be fixed.

On behalf of the jack connector, the holes were defined in the cutout layer that was lost in the kicad translation.
