Have the customer save the Protel design as a PCAD ASCII file( PDIF ) , then read that file into Allegro. ----- Original Message ----- From: alan fisch To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2004 9:22 AM Subject: [PCB_FORUM] protel to allegro Good morning all I have a potential customer asking about old Protel data and schematic archives. He has the old archives and needs some edits made and then move forward to a new layout. Since I use Allegro studio and have never been asked to do such a translation I was hoping someone here could set me straight as to whether or not I can even make old Protel files compatible with Allegro or translate them into useable Orcad Capture files.
