I had to try panelizing a PCB the other day, as I had to connect all the
power and GND lines upto a main connector on the panel, so that the
boards could be assembled on the panel, powered up and tested, as well
as burn-ins B4 breaking the individual circuits from the panel.
I tried to do it
While I'm following this thread I'm playing with some new thoughts I caught
for panelizing a PCB within Protel. Anyway it is really hard work and much
easier to let the PCB house do it for you.
However, what do you folks think about an input to Protel for the
requirements for a panelizing server

Stephen,
we do this all the time for panelizing multiple designs or just
multiples of a single design. What we do is to completely
we use protel
use paste special on a copy of the board
set keep nets, dupe desigs
works pretty well

When
Many designers try to panel a board within Protel. It can be done but it's
messy and I don't recommend it unless you are trying to put different
layouts into one panel to save fab costs.
If the purpose of your panel is for economical assembly, use a panel
drawing, or incorporate the panel

Pardon my ignorance...What's a mousebite? A cute name for a break-apart
slot?
I'm thinking it might be good to add the support bars and mousebites in
Protel, then panelize in Camtastic and just connect the board together...

A few things to consider...
After doing all the editing and work-arounds required to panel within
Protel, are your going to be able to get a clean DRC? Do you really want to
do that amount of editing without one? What are you going to do when its
time to rev the design? Are you being paid by
) feedback.
