[PCB_FORUM] Re: Passing Film Control and Text Sizes to New Brd

About the best you can do for the color settings is go into the original
board, record a script of setting each color to what it already is, then
replay that script into your new board file.

Tim,
If you have access to your old brd file, the film records can all be
saved as individual control files.
Open the artwork control, right click on the film record and click
'Save'. 
In the new brd file, make sure you have all the same subclasses in your
database. Open the artwork control window, and click 'Load', for each
film record you want to add. (You will need to navigate to the files
that were just saved).

As far as color setting and text sizes go, there's no easy way to do
this. 

Best of luck,
Andrew
