Actually, the 99SE ASCII data structure is self-documenting and therefore quite easy to write. I'd skip the 2.8 step entirely. Just take an empty PCB and add the needed primitives to it. To see how to write a primitive record, place a primitive similar to what you want to write in that empty PCB and see what is added to the file (save all files in ASCII format using Save As). * Tracking #: 3FEBE7142EC4FA4E9921F182F27F3C73DB9AC61B * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Re: [PEDA] P99SE PCB Ascii V2.8 File Format
The PCB 2.8 manual has a full and detailed file format specification in the appendix. There may be someone in Deutschland that has a manual or someone could photocopy/scan/fax the relevent pages. ___ Clive Broome IDT Sydney Design CentrePh: +61 2 9763 3513 8 Baywater Dr, Homebush Fax:+61 2 9763 3409 Sydney, NSW, 2127 Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Australia ___ Schmitt Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 08/14/2002 08:11:07 PM Please respond to Protel EDA Forum [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Protel EDA Forum (E-Mail) [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Clive Broome/sdc) Subject: [PEDA] P99SE PCB Ascii V2.8 File Format We want to write an external converter from our Hf microstrip design tools to import layout informations into Protel 99SE, by using the PCB 2.8 ASCII File Format as temporary data exchange file.
