Hello,

I'm at a point where I'd like to make PCB for my minature robot. Presently, it has three 1" x 1" Radio Shack general purpose PCBs stacked one above the other using some spacers. I have 30 day trial version of the Protel's s/w. I guess my question is many fold:

······· 1.····· How to tell Protel the dimensions of my board
······· 2.····· After done drawing, how do I go about making the pcb - with steps involved.

I know most of you guys have a lot of experience doing PCB stuff - if you can throw some light and point me to some text (or web site) explaining the process, that'll be really great!!!

Thanks in advance
nagi

    I posted this before. The price is right, but I haven't used them
