There's no substitute for process. Where I work, the rule is that 2 sets of
eyes check every schematic symbol. Just because the symbol has a pin labeled
reset and it's on pin 1 doesn't mean that the datasheet agrees with the symbol.
Also, two sets of eyes are required to check every package

Just to let you know I'm preparing some instructions for my own formal

file on the server and leaving it for people to figure out for
themselves, so it
When I make a change to a part in a library that's already been placed in the
schematic, I can't seem to get the part properties to be updated in the
schematic (and more importantly the netlist), even when I clear the cache. In
browsing the .sch file with notepad, the problem seems to be that
When I print on my hp color laser printer the net names over the power symbols
appear as little lines, like . It doesn't do it on my BW HP color laser
printer, but it's much less easy to read overall. Any help would be very much
