If you can get your mech designer to produce the board outline, including the mounting holes drawing in DXF format then you do not need to put the holes in the schematic otherwise: Place the 4 mounting holes in the schematic using a suitable symbol from the library (which should have a 3mm hole diameter footprint associated with it). Then place the component and connector symbols in the schematic. Then go through the essential checks in (4) in (2) in: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a)<br> <br> Generate the BOM from the schematic. Order the parts. Then do **Convert to PCB** and place the footprints and holes where you want them. If you can get your mech designer to produce the board outline, including the mounting holes drawing in DXF format then you can import it directly into the PCB Editor. Otherwise use the Board Outline tool to set the board dimensions and the corner rounding: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/HG4xl50Kgju7cIw1pnBDkGXpvCtykMxRGDUIp036.png) Then route the board. Then go through the essential checks in (6) in (2) in: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a)<br> <br> Once satisfied that the board is correct, submit it for PCB manufacture at JLCPCB. (Your parts may not be suitable for PCB Assembly by JLCPCB). <br> If there are things that you don't understand about EasyEDA probably the fastest way to learn is to make a dummy project and just play with the tools to see what they do. Please read - and follow all the linked documents in - (2) in: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a)<br> <br> If you're really stuck, I or others on the forum can offer paid-for design services.

To share a project: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-make-a-Project-public-and-share-the-links-to-it-9f006513b84b412580910905b0281d20](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-make-a-Project-public-and-share-the-links-to-it-9f006513b84b412580910905b0281d20)<br> <br> This is slightly out of date now but should still work OK.
