    Hi,

     

    there is the EAGLE Freeware you are allowed to use for testing and non-profit use as well. The Freeware has a limitation in the maximum board size of half an Euro card, which is 100 mm x 80 mm, and it is limited to two signal layers (Top and Bottom, no inner layers).

     

    Download is for free from www.cadsoft.de/download.htm or take the link from here at element-14:

    Regards,

    Richard
