Hi,
Eagle does not offer a possibility to print a PCB layout repeatedly to a page. Also the copy & paste approach is limited to the max. board size and therefore depending on the license.
A possible way is to export the layout of the PCB to an .png file, import the image to GIMP and duplicate them.

Raspberry PI: Connecting a HD44780 Display over I2C Bus
Hi everybody,
some application, i.e. XBMC can show informations on a display by using LCDproc as driver.
This post describes a way to connect a HD44780 display to a Raspberry PI by i2c bus.
Let’s start with the physical layer. This is the overview schematic on how to connect the display to a Raspberry PI.
Based on these I developed small board with a 6 Pin header which is Pin compatible to the Raspberry PI. So a simple 6 pole ribbon cable can be used to connect the HD44780 Display to the fruit.
Here is my PCB. First the schematic.
and my board layout. Unfortunately there are a lot HD44780 models available and the location and the direction of the pins are different, so you have to adapt the layout to the specification of your display.
