You might want to take a look at my TO92 footprints in gedasymbols.org
They were made to fit FETs (TO92_GDS.fp) or ordinary transistors:

http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/kai_martin_knaak/footprints/generic/TO92_GDS.fp
I just included these footprints in my current project. Bit they have
not yet been produced in an actual pcb. So you should double check for errors.

PS: Leventes TO92 footprint looks like TO18 to me
