David,

Try the following;

* IPC-D-275, Design Standard for Rigid Printed Boards and Rigid Printed
Board Assemblies,
        (this document may no longer be in print)

* IPC-DR-572, Drilling Guidelines for Printed Boards,

* IPC-D-300G, Printed Board Dimensions and Tolerances,

As I look through the IPC catalog there is the following set of standards
which may satisfy all your needs,

* IPC-M-105

Phil Nutting
