Gene I've been doing File - export IDF... - select PTC in the file type filter, check use filter and exclude vias etc. Outputs .emn and .emp files. Seems to import into ProE okay. The .emp is the symbol library file.

IDF 3.0 output the part name, and location, but little else. Hopefully he does not have to build a model for each part. Other tools I have used also spit out the models of the parts... Anybody doing Allegro to Pro-E now? ----------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe/unsubscribe: Send a message to icu-pcb-forum-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with a subject of subscribe or unsubscribe To view the archives of this list please login at //www.freelists.org.
