I have designed and simulated patch antenna in sonnet lite may I know how can I make my simulated antenna into real PCB board. please post your helpful advice as quick as possible so that I can do my project.
 

!

Some more information would be a benefit as my crystal ball is not working at the moment.....

Sorry Marc - I borrowed your crystal ball the batteries so I could get mine to work :)

Nesan, I think your only option is to export your antenna as DXF and import it into a PCB program that can import it and then recreate it in that pcb package.
Lite versions do not generally enable you to transfer between themselves and other packages - you usually only get this capability if you have the full paid versions.

So now you need to decide what PCB program you get for the project.

sorry for the inconveniences by me. and I thought I can clear my basic doubts through PM. And I am a beginner in this so after a long googling I landed here and I got some valuable replies which kick started my project. I believe that just replying thanks to every post is meaningless but after every reply I follwed the process and raised my next doubt only for my understanding.Thanks for your time for my thread

Yes, export from Sonnet Professional to DXF or Gerber file format would be the usual way. However, the free Sonnet Lite does not support any import/export. Also, you can't print to scale.

Nesan, you need to measure dimensions in Sonnet Lite and draw manually in the PCB system.
