Before I changed to using www.pcb-pool.com, I used to take my PostScript output from my PCB tool (Labcenter ARES), and put it through a little Perl script I wrote which panellised the artworks. PostScript is just another programming language, and depending on how the tool generates the code, you can just cut-and-paste sections of the second (and subsequent) PS files into the first one. PS has a "set origin"-type command so that you just have to add one line which shifts the entire artwork to stop it overwriting the existing ones. I'm afraid I don't have the Perl script any more (and it probably wouldn't work on gEDA's pcb), but you can probably use the same concept. You can use ghostview (or similar) to check the artworks have been arranged correctly before printing them. -- David Smith Work Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] STMicroelectronics Home Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bristol, England GPG Key: 0xF13192F2
