Re: Target 3001 schematic capture, PCB, simulation, etc.

Yep, ExpressPCB seems to do everything I actually need for toner transfer except mirror the print, but since my printer will mirror it's not a problem. As of yet, I've not been able to get the schematic to tie to the PCB as it says it will do. I'm sure I've not done something correct - but many of my simple circuits I just do them on PCB without doing the schematic....  yea, I know, the schematic is ALWAYS the first thing to do.

I had been feeling guilty about not using Eagle since it seems lots of the files around are in Eagle, but each time I try to do the schematic...  just much harder than it should be for my simple mind.
