So which programs does everyone use/like? I'm looking for one that has the capabilities of outputting the copper layers, solder mask, and silkscreen separately in Gerber format.

Thanks!

    In the free catagory, I prefer Eagle Lite. There are other programs which are better but you'll spend $$$ on them.

    I also use Eagle Lite.· I use Viewmate (free) to view the Gerbers.

    I use winQCad. You are able to import protel and Orcad libraries. It is free up to 499 pins. 1000 pins is $600.
