Looking for a PCB Layout software

PCB Layout software

Recently, I've been using ExpressPCB to design my circuit boards for my car. I need to be able to have program what I can make a specific size and shape of a board, and then do the layout from there. Can anyone recommend anything?

Re: PCB Layout software

I guess you want it for free right

I do not know how complex your board outline will be but Protel offer Easytrax and Autotrax as freeware now. Manual routing but full featured software. http://www.protel.com/resources/downloads/index.html

Do you know of anything Windows-based?

If you need a prof. prog. look for Power*PCB

small boards (any shape) full functions are enabled !

Ok. Thank you all for the help. I'm making a board that is in the shape of a ___

for my car. I'm adding switches and leds that control my components. I just needed something to actually draw ou the design and shape to scale instead of guessing on ExpressPCB. Again, thank you.
