This came up recently due to a small coincidence. Does anyone remember this early MS-DOS game for PC compatibles? It was designed to look exactly like the spreadsheet, so you could play in the office, but you had to "shoot" falling numbers by doing arithmetic... It looked just like a mockup of

Hey Alex, I haven't re-traced a PCB but I would probably do the same thing Jim is suggesting - import a graphic into my CAD program and trace it over with metal. EAGLE has lots of scripts available to import graphics, DXFs and do other completely different things. You can also write your own!

If this is a one off all you need to do is print the negatives on transparency material with a laser printer. The laser printers tend to have a little more opacity than ink jets do but I have done this with an ink jet printer as well. I also once plotted directly on the bare copper with a sharpie
