Re: gEDA-user: footprint too large

You could increase the board size (File -> Preferences -> Sizes) and
add an outline layer (File -> Preferences -> Layers) named "outline".
Draw the board outline on the outline layer and move everything so
that there is some space around the board. You can then have a
footprint hang over the edge.

Just note that PCB manufacturers typically have a minimum board edge
to copper clearance (particularly if they V-score panels) which might
create a hassle for you further down the line during manufacturing.
They should be able to remove it manually for you though.
