I barely remember when draftspersons would draw schematics on vellum
and tape PCBs on Mylar. I am too young to remember inked drawings on
starched linen, and inked PCB layouts too.
It was adventurous to run a trace between two pins of a DIP ic.
Being old and cantankerous that is exactly how I do my simple PCBs to this day, except that I use Corel draw and layers.
I spent a week trying to get a PCB cad program to work, gave up and did the PCB in a day.
There is an online website that will convert Corel drawings to the correct format for PCBs.
