  13       PCB includes a rats nest feature and schematic/netlist import,
  14       design rule checking, and can provide industry standard RS-274X
  15       (Gerber), NC drill, IPC-D-356 netlist and centroid data (X-Y data)
  16       output for use in the board fabrication and assembly process, as
  17       well as photorealistic and design review images.

  20       PCB offers high end features such as an autorouter, a topological
  21       router and various trace optimizers which can tremendously reduce
  22       layout time.
  23     </_p>
  24     <_p>
  25       For custom requirements, PCB offers a plug-in API for inserting
  26       new functionality and using that functionality from within the GUI
  27       as well as in scripts.
