You can also try to export layers to PostScript and then import them using pstoedit (version >= 3.50). See my manual: http://www.penguin.cz/~utx/pstoedit-pcb/ I am interested in the result and the PostScript file as well. With a PostScript file generated by Eagle, it may be possible to improve pstoedit heuristic to generate more useful results (it depends on the way Eagle uses PostScript language). -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: [email protected] Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966, +49 911 740538747 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
