I did that years ago in old Tango PCB, but its not "perfect". Now that I'm
polishing up my PCi board and preparing for gold plating etc I want to
do it properly. Takes quite a while to draw that thing. Its not like drawing
a resistor.

It shouldn't be too bad in PCAD. Start by drawing the pin (pad on the
edge connector) that will be the exposed or plated copper. You can
then do a "copy matrix" to create an array of them at the exact pad -
pad spacing for the connector. You can also copy it or mirror it to
the bottom side ("move to layer") to create those pads too. Drawing
one pad and then copying it to the other locations will probably be a
lot more accurate than trying to draw the whole thing, not to mention
quicker. Once you have it drawn, set your snap to a very small scale
and measure from pad edge to pad edge, etc to verify the spacing.
