Board outlines can be found at the front of various Logic Handbooks. They
only contradict each other a little bit :-). Likewise component clearances.
I haven't seen the edge bevel specified anywhere, but it isn't very critical
either.
That's a good place to look, I hadn't found those yet. I'm assuming a
standard 30 degree bevel should do.
Interestingly
enough, my Douglas CAD software for my old Mac has DEC card
outline templates pre-stored. However, I'm not even entirely sure Douglas
makes PCBs anymore, and I imagine they can't beat my preferred board house on
price (I'd love to be wrong).
My Eagle CAD libraries have card outlines, edge connectors, and even
many of the obsolete parts. You can find them at:
http://www.so-much-stuff.com/pdp8/cadlib.html I should really try get around to updating the copies
there. If you plan to
use them (or see something important missing) let me know offlist and I'll
see what I can do.
Thanks! I might give you a buzz.
Thanks also to everyone else who pointed out the bits that I missed in the manuals I
already looked through; perhaps maybe I just need to read slower. :-)
