Hey folks,
I reviewing a large opportunity to reverse engineer a few hundred
obsolete PCB layout designs. Each design has different available data
files. Some only have a pdf drawing of the etch and board dimensions.
Others have unkown originated gerber files and apertures lists. I have
downloaded the CAM350 tool and am currently undergoing learning that
tools processes and capabilities. I was wondering if any of you out
there have much experience with reverse engineering, the CAM 350 tool or
could recommend alternative tools. The idea output would be to reverse
engineer to create a Cadence Concept HDL schematic, BOM, full netlist,
and layout the board for availability for fabrication and assembly. 
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanx in advance.
