    The only real option you have is to create a new subclass (Setup - More - Subclasses, panel for example) and then copy the Design_Outline to that layer. Then use the drafting Utilities (Manufacture - Drafting) to make the panel detail. You can draw a profile and dimension this up. This is usually enough for the fabricator to then step and repeat the actual artwork data before they make the board. The alternative is to upgrade the standard license to a professional which has the Fab panelisation tool (under the Export menu) or look at OrCAD Doc Editor or DownStream's Blueprint.
