Yes, plenty of times. I use tracing film, but I suppose you could use
transfer paper if you're careful (I've never tried it). I make sure I mark
one of the corners and one edge of the layout exactly in registration on
both layers. When I expose the PCB, I make sure the raw PCB is exactly
lined up on that corner and edge for both exposures (both sides). It helps
if the raw PCB is carefully cut! Transfer paper might actually be easier
if oyu can do both sides at once, but you'd have to make sure it didn't
stretch or warp.
