I have a utility that will place the top and bottom layers on a single sheet of a HP postscript printer.
It has served my home use for making small double sided PCB's (> 25) with transfer film. You are
welcome to the C source but I cannot provide extensive support.
Some features:
top layer is reverse image
board outline
alignment targets
can scrub and top side holes that have no connections
Some drawbacks:
Only small boards, approx 4x4 inch - 10x10 cm
Completely independent of the PCB source

Hi guys I've made a small pcb. The ps output is ok, it prints nicely to scale. I plan to use the toner transfer method to make the print. I am using HP inkjet overhead film for the transfer, and to save the costs (no I'm not a Scotsman) I wonders if someone has run into a program, that easily lets you multiply and arrange the pcb printout on one page, without destroying the scaling of the pcb. I've tried the Gimp, but it seems much to complicated for me. It lets you import and arrange the pcb's; but one seems always to end up with a printout, which is out of scale. I'm am aware, that of course its possible to fiddle with scaling in The Gimp; but I feel there is far to many options which could go wrong. Any bright ideas before I'm running out of toner.
