Hi All,
Novice to PCB design but made my first board layout from schematic, but i want all non surface mount components and single layer copper. When i convert to pcb it shows 2 layers plus defaults all the components to SMD how do i gert round this? I am making a board used in the 1980's ! Discreet components only
@Beechcraft100,
Physical components are often available in several different types of package.
When you place a symbol for a device in the schematic, you need to specify which package you want to be pulled into the PCB.
You do that by clicking on the Package attribute of the symbol in the schematic and then searching for and assigning the appropriate PCB Footprint to it using the Footprint Manager.

Easy to use and quick to get started. 
Hello ;
Make sure that you are using a through-hole components for you schematic and you can check this through the package of each component.
You can share link for you design and I will help investigate this.
