=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Hello,

I have designed a pcb with 24x50mm size. The manufacturing process allows boards up to 50x50mm. I would like to put two copies of the same board
into the resulting gerber files. My question is whether it is possible to d= o
it in a script, so that I can maintain and fix bugs in my original 24x50mm<= br> design only, and create the 50x50 layout as post-processing.

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 I can do it manually from PCB menus, but is there a non-int= eractive
method for it?

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Thanks!
