Austin,
By ASCII output that mean ASCII Output using Allegro Extract. If they
are using CAMCAD they should have access to the Allegro extract view
file called "valext.txt" which will output all the required files. Once
you have the "valext.txt" extract file you can run the following command
for a DOS/UNIX Command prompt:
extracta <boardfile>.brd valext.txt <boardfile>.b <boardfile>.p
<boardfile>.s <boardfile>.r
The order of the command line is very important because it maps to the
individual extract views inside of valext.txt file. I have an old copy
of this extract file if they cannot locate it for you but it is probably
best to use the latest and greatest file to avoid any problems with
extract or import into CAMCAD.
Hope this helps,

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Outputting "ASCII" from Allegro???
Hi,
I've been asked to convert an Allegro .brd file into something that can
be
read in by a program called CAMCAD. I've been told that it'll take an
"ASCII" output from Allegro, but I don't see any ASCII output capability
from Allegro in either the "Save As" or the "Export" selections. Any
suggestions?
Regards,
Austin
