Hi James, One option: Translate PADS Powerlogic schematic to OrCAD Capture www.elgris.com can do it for a fee. They can sell the tool to translate PADS2OrCAD too. Then use translated OrCAD schematic with Allegro. Second option: Translate PADS Powerlogic to DxDesigner. Mentor has internal translator. Export Allegro Netlist from a DxDesigner schematic. If you don't have DxDesigner and Allegro interface you will have issues with backannotation. Third option : Export PCB netlist from PADS Powerlogic. Look for a netlist conversion utility to convert it to Allegro netlist. You might have issues as the schematic->board link will not work that well.
