Subject: RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Toner Transfer Methodology

From: "Herbert E. Plett" <cachureos@...>

I use Eagle and am about trying DipTrace (first heard of on this list).

anyhow I think transferring via PDF is almost as crazy as using DOC!
but I guess almost any printing program has some sort of 'page setup'
it's just a matter of selecting appropriate margins...

and the new PDF format (and newest readers) permit extract pictures from it...
