[Discuss] schematic capture to pcb



That's the nature of such software.

On Windows, TinyCAD and FreePCB are a pretty solid pair.  Note the latest
FreePCB installer is hugely outdated, you need to unpack an archive of
newer executable/DLLs after you install it, and copy over the current files.

KiCad is OK on Linux.
