You create the .cnv file by putting the 'name of your choice'.cnv in the pop-up form field. Then select the edit cnv button and you can then select the map names inside of that file. ________________________________ From: icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kathy Mitchell Sent: Friday, June 03, 2005 10:12 AM To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [PCB_FORUM] exporting .dxf files from Allegro Greetings all, Can anyone tell me how to export a board file out in .dxf format? I'm running Allegro 15.2 Design Expert and it appears that I'm having problems because of a missing conversion file. (.cnv)? I need to export the routing, vias and component outlines if possible.
