please give me the name of the software that converts a schematic into PCB layout in single layer. provide the link of the soft if you have.
thank you.
 

Most of modern programs performs those features ( i.e. Altium, Mentor Graphics, Proteus, Spectra, etc... ).

You can also use Cadence Allegro, capture the schematic by using Design Entry CIS, export the netlist and import it to your PCB Editor..
 

I think, the question is understood different. Luben111 is refering to auto placement and auto routing software. But particular the auto placement feature won't be of any use for a beginner. And the result of single layer auto routing without well considered placement is rather questionable. I really appreciate the performance of the Specctra router, but I won't suggest it for any one without some years of PCB design experience.

Any PCB design tool will in fact convert a schematic to a PCB, but need the user to perform component placement and either routing the traces or to define the rules for auto routing.
 

I use the free one called "Kicad"

There is a Yahoo group for help.
 

I tend to agree with FvM, once should not use auto placement, instead he can use cross placement feature, where he is selecting a component in schematic and placing it is PCB board. This would help him floorplan the PCB easily.
You can download demo version of OrCAD Capture-PCB Editor from **broken link removed**
 

I feel a mod comment on pcb program v pcb program coming this way
