Dear list, In the production process, it is always good to know which footprints are tested, so that they could be used wihtout futher considerations in the future projects. This results in company specific symbol and footprint libraries, which could also represent the company's repository managed with a database and scripts that read special fields out of the schematic files and do automated booking, ordering, etc. of parts.
With gschem, I managed a small directory where I put the parts that I often use in my designs. I would like to do the same thing with PCB footprints. How can I extract a specific M4 library-element from say "~geda" library ( e.g. 0805) and put it in a single file e.g. my_0805 in the directory of my designs? Many thanks, Shahab. -------- Shahab Sanjari (sanjariathrzdottu-darmstadtdotde)
