Hi, I don't know much about EN2004 but I am using ISD/WG2004.

So :

- EN means ENterprise while WG means WorkGroup level tools
- Expedition PCB is the PCB layout tool of the WG2004 PCB suite
- ISD2004 is the Integrated Systems Distribution, a disk collection containing
most of Mentor PCB related tools (WG, Tau, ICX, Library Manager, etc...)
- PadsPCB is a lower level PCB design tool than WG

Mentor has the habbit of presenting all progs as the heaven of the tools.
As a consequence, no customer is able to tell which prog is more sophisticated
than the other. Only the price or experimented users can tell. On the
website any prog is the best and ideal for you.:cry:
