Dear Dave,

Perhaps that's a bit misleading. As some people like to PCBs for home-made
circuits, sometimes all they want is a PostScript printout on the laser
printer which can be etched into a copper-plated board. Xcircuit's
PostScript output makes it useful for that. For anything more complicated
than that, use the open-source tool "pcb", not xcircuit, for the layout.
I hope that clarifies the statement in the website.
Regards,
Tim
