INTRODUCTION
------------

Pcb is a simple CAD for designing Pcbs.



COPYRIGHT & DISTRIBUTION
------------------------


This software is subject to the "Standard Amiga FD-Software Copyright Note".
It is SHAREWARE as defined in paragraph 4s. If you use it regularly 
you should REGISTER.
For more information please read "AFD-COPYRIGHT" (Version 1 or higher).



REQUIREMENTS
------------

 Software:


  - MUI 3.0          (dev/gui/muiXXusr.lha)

  - EasyPrint        (gfx/misc/easyprint.lha)
 
  - iff.library 23.2 (Included)

 Hardware:


    Minimum: 

     - A500/68000/KS3.0/2MB 


    Usable:

     - A1200/68030/50Mhz 


    Optimum:

     - A4000/60 with a graphic card


    Fantastic:

     - PowerAmiga/PowerPC (and a graphic card :-) )



INSTALLATION
------------

   Drag'n'Drop the Pcb drawer in a suitable place on your HD.
   Start EasyPrint at least once (IMPORTANT).

   Give to Pcb his own screen with at least 2 colors (for the maximum
   speed).


USE
---

   Is very simple.... (but you should read this manual from the first
                       to the last line)

   Launch Pcb from the CLI


   -WAIT-


   On the left of the window you can see a double-column listview
   with some circuit components.

   On the right you can see a paper of 4 cm x 2 cm....yes it is 
   a paper.... .

   You can drag components from the listview to the paper for composing
   your circuit.

   Then you can click on <EasyPrint> for printing your circuit.

   Pcb can print, WITHOUT LOSING QUALITY, at 1800x1800 DPI!!!!!
   
   (ehm...if you have a printer capable of 1800x1800 DPI  :-) )

   
   SINCE THIS IS A DEMO-BETA VERSION  i've not yet implemented some
   features:


    - Load/Save

    - Preferences 

    - Menus

    - Bubble-help

    - Online examples

    - Better communication with EasyPrint

    - Icon
  
    - Installer script

    - Memory pools

    - Intensive use of the gauge object

    - 680(10)/20/30/40 versions

    - Other

    

 
    When I'll release the first official version (september/october 1996),
    i'll also release a public demo version with only some things disabled
    (Saving and other minor features).



HOW TO WRITE COMPONENTS
-----------------------

   Each component is a 90x90 IFF-ILBM image file  with a depth of one plane.

   You can load your favourite paint program and design your own
   components.


   REMEMBER:

   Due to the format of the save file that i've projected you must follow
   some rules when you give a name to your component.

    NAME FORMAT:

    <identification letter(s)>[<size in mm>].<progressive number>.iff

    Id are:

    L  for lines
    D  for double lines
    A  for 45° lines
    C  for "crossed" lines
    IC for ICs holes
    TH for transistors holes


   
   |This format may change, so YOU SHOULDN'T release
   |any component to the public!! Send me your new components
   |and I'll release it in a special archive.

    FOLLOW THIS RULES TO HAVE THE COMPATIBILITY WITH FUTURE RELEASES 
    OF PCB.
