Dave in your travels what would you consider the best PCB drafting software to be. currently I'm useing WinQcad but i find it quite annoying especially how the program automatically defines the dimensions of the PCB for you and you can't change it. |

for pcb drafing I've been using the software available for free from expresspcb.com its quite good very easy to use and the pcb bit can interface with the schematics bit so if you click on a pad it highlights the other pads it connects too, very handy in manual routing, I'm also looking into diptrace that there is a free ware version of, this has an autorouter but I think the learning curve is a bit steeper |
| Dago:
Eagle is most likely the best free software for creating PCBs and schematics. |
| Simon:
I found it mind boggling and just gave up, a program can be the best on the planet but if its hard to work with because its interface was not thought out well enough its a non starter |
