Generally speaking, a PCB outline is defined by a track/trace/whatever, used to 
define the outer boundary (perimeter) of the PCB. One drags the vertices of 
this board outline to redefine the board dimensions.

At least, this is how it's done with most software. In Protel, at least up to 
and including v99SE, the keepout layer is used for this purpose. In PCAD there 
is a dedicated layer called, suprisingly enough, "board". Can't remember what I 
used to use in OrCad...In Autocad or similar full function CAD packages, one 
simply defines a new layer to use for the purpose and applies one's keepout 
routines to that layer.
