Bitmaps - PCB registration

Dick:

        EDWin has the ability to build components and symbols. It also has
the ability to embed a BMP file. So, I was hoping that someone had a
registration mark in a popular graphics format for me to embed without
having to go through the trouble of building a symbol.

        I have a copyright legend in the component side copper and
"component side" text in the silk screen.

The packages I've used (2 versons of OrCAD and EAGLE) seem not only to
provide registration targets, but certainly provide sufficient utility to
build such a symbol if it didn't already exist. Have you considered making
your own registration target?

If you do build it, be certain it's different from one side of each layer to
the other. If you include a bit of text, i.e. a layer identifier in your
registration target, that will help quite a bit. You may also want such an
identifier separate from the target, so you can be certain all the layers
are present when you look at a registered set of layer overlays. It must be
obvious which is which, however, as it's easy to reverse a layer if you have
both reversed text and "right-way-around" text in the copper.
