Re: [PEDA] Protel to Orcad Schematic
I can confirm what Dennis knows. Protel exports the SDT version of a schematic, but not the SDT library/symbols required by Capture v7.2 and above to translate the SDT version. The issue of correctly modifying the SDT.cfg file, required to up-rev an SDT design to v7.2 and above, is moot without the SDT library/symbols. You can generate the Orcad .olb library. But its not straight forward. You can generate a .olb lib from P98, so you need to save your P99 project back into P98 then save as SDT SCH OLB, amend the .cfg file then import into Orcad. I was always pretty disappointed that the support was removed in P99SE, but you can see how its better for Protel if Import is OK, but export is more difficult ... as Capture is a nice environment (but myself Layout will never be friends).

can't be done as far as i know if you find a way please let me know Dennis Saputelli Westfeldt, Pat wrote: We have to translate a few of these guys. Does anyone know the procedure for translating a schematic from Protel 99SE to Orcad CIS 9.2? or any Orcad version 7.2 or above? I assume I have to have symbols in place that mimic the Protel symbol, or is this actually necessary? Thanks in advance.
