PCB detail

Software

Please use Eagle 7.7 software to open schematic files (main.sch/main.brd and sub.sch/sub.brd)

Eagle 7.7 can be found at http://eagle.autodesk.com/eagle/software-versions/1

Note.
7.7 is an old and free version of Eagle. 
Latest Eagle is not free anymore unless you are students

Manufacture

There are a lot of online service that can manufacture PCB/PCBA for you (just google PCB/PCBA).

Seeed (https://www.seeedstudio.io/fusion_pcb.html) is one of them.

They also provide instructions of generating necessary Gerber files at http://support.seeedstudio.com/knowledgebase/articles/1176532-how-to-generate-gerber-file.
