Creating PCB panels in PCB Editor

Can you duplicate your pcb in editor? I've just finished designing a pcb and I want to create a panel with 18 PCB total (9 rows 2 colums) with a technical edge on each side so than i could send the manufecturer a gerb files. How can i make a panel and put 18 same pcb on it? I have to make 18 schematics in capture and after i can copy pcbs in editor? Can it be done in pcb editor or do I need some patch for it..?

Thanks Szabolcs

Yes I don't understand why there is not an easy way to panelize in orcad either, unlike Altium.
I did come across a company called flowcad who have a plugin called "FloWare Apps for OrCAD and Allegro" which does what you are asking for, however it's very expensive.
Has anyone else came across a method which beats this on price/performance.
