That is actually what I did, so no problems there.

Most of the footprints will have to be custom, based closely on those in my screenshot: a lot of these parts have no footprints in PCB (e.g. some of the smaller resistors, the voltage regulator, the crystal, etc...). Perhaps I could simply trace along the screenshot, then print, then check my printouts against real components, then recalibrate in PCB?
