How to arrange my board design based on the A4 page size

Andrew2

Hello:

I wanna arrange ten board designs on A4 page.

How to adjust the board design coordinate and put the ten designs on the same page in the pcb editor.

    Moving coordinates can be done using Menu>Setup>Design_Parameter > Design TAB > Move origin. In your case if you want to set the 0,0 coordinates on lower left most, try to get the coordinates of the said point and enter the value on Move origin. Balancing placement of circuit can be done on actual calculation and measurement using show measure and move command (ix x y).

    Thanks for your reply.

    But there is a question remained that is how to arrange ten designs on my page.

    If the illustrated circuits are separate design boards, you may use the command create module. To do that go to the specific design board then Menu>Tools>Create Module.. display all desired subclass to be exported and select the whole board and this will be saved as .mdd file. If the 10 design boards are not identical, please create .mdd file of all boards. To import the created .mdd file, create the base (A4) design the go to Menu>Place>Manually on the drop down menu of pop-up window, select module definition and select the created .mdd files to be placed on the base board. Be sure that the module path is set correctly on user preference settings>Paths>Library>module path to export the .mdd file successfully.
