Hi,

I'm working on old process which using still IC5141. Trying to lefout a very simple layout (just with shape and pin only), but encountered error as below. I'm having difficulty in troubleshooting. 

May need some advice for those whom encountered the same issue to point me the problematic part.

Version: "@(#)$CDS: layoutPlus.exe version 5.1.0 02/02/2009 09:56 (cicln04) $"

Thanks a lot.

    Did you generate the cell list at the bottom of the LEF form? Without this it will only output technology LEF.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
