There are actually two different texts available which covers both topics quite well:

Analog Design and Simulation using OrCAD Capture and PSpice

Complete PCB Design Using OrCAD Capture and PCB Editor

i had planned to draw the schematic of Pic Mcirocontroller.But there is no library files included in the software.what should i do?

hi deva,
create the schematic symbol like file-->new-->library--->library file will be generated in project manager and then (file format is xyz.olb) open the library file and draw the pic uC symbol and save it after that

- - - Updated - - -

go to your schematic page select place part or in keyboard press "P" place part pop-up will be enable and then click add library give the symbol location path
select it and then you can place in your drawing

You can also use the schematic and PCB footprint libraries provided by Microchip/Accelerated Designs:
