There are many pre-defined symbols for doing what you are talking about. Socket locations, solder points, traces, etc. You can also capture clipboards and save them to disk (kind of the equivalent of a scrapbook). The program will let you design in up to 72 dots per inch resolution which is the same as the screen resolution on a Mac. A drawing at 72 dpi can print out upto 6 by 8 feet on any dot matrix printer. However, there are only about 20 different printers that the PCB symbols will be accurate to scale on. If your printer has a 72 x 72 printer mode, it will do it. For an Imagewriter, the program will use the 144 x 72 mode. Everything is accurate to scale. Call or write to: Kitchen Sink Software, Inc. 903 Knebworth Ct.
