The Specctra DSN format is adequate for exporting a design from a layout tool to a router and then back importing it. It is quite well designed. > TOPO-R CANNOT CREATE A SESSION FILE THAT CAN BE RE_IMPORTED to PCBNew. At > least I've never been able to move a layout back into KiCAD/PCBNew.

If it is non-standard, there are limits to how far we can step out of bounds. Question, how is the path to the TOPO-R working, is that via PCBNEW's DSN export? Dick
