This is the 'expetced' output of that import plugin, as is does not produce consistent sch and brd, the PCB result is always much better than this what ought to become the schema.Ĭan you try the KiCaD importer? Last time I checked, it could only handle ASCII-format Altium files. The PCB kinda works, but the schematic threw up a large number of errors and wasn't able to import any of the components.ĪCK, also same here. I tried importing them into Eagle 7.7 (the last one I have a license for)

I set up an output job to generate them, and they're attached. There appear to be P-CAD exporters for both the PCB ("P-CAD ASCII") and schematic ("P-CAD V16 Schematic Design" ). What do you think cibomahto ? Also, is there still the possibility to export an Altium schema to PCAD-ASCII? Freerouting can interface via a Specctra. KiCAD got an native Altium import a year ago.

(The eagle import for PCAD/Protel/Accel ASCII is far from perfect (see ), but basically works with an additional amount of manual extra work. Library elements could be rebuilt and are not a major concern. As this round of design improvements comes closer to its end, it would be nice to have the major design files also saved in another interchange format to gain access with other eCAD software for wider spread.Ī way would be exporting from Altium into Specctra/P-CAD ASCII format, but it looks like as if comtemporary Altium is no longer able to export schematic editor files to PCAD ASCII but only PCB editor's content (which IIRC was different some years ago)? If so, then only a *.pcb file would come out.
