Good point. I'm used to using CorelDraw and a vinyl cutter so it draws it differently, I guess. I make sure and join all objects that touch so the path is only around the outside of an area. I would imagine that if I try and use something like Eagle that way, I'll have to figure it out again. I can do simple PCBs without much trouble in CorelDraw, but anything more complex or any changes are a big hassle.
