Hi All

As I know there are 2 off-page symbol IN/OUT

How can I use for bi-directional off-page symbol? Doesn't OrCAD support this?

    An Off-Page Connector just makes the Net, or Bus / Net Group, "public" to other Pages at the same level in the design, if flat, or hierarchy, for a hierarchical design, there isn't any Type property associated with the Off-Page Connector and any "direction" is purely graphical. If you need to use some different graphics, you can add you own Off-Page Connectors, with associated graphics, to your own libraries.

    This was a misguided decision by Cadence.  Much of a schematic is 'purely graphical'.  Why place pin names on symbols except to make the schematic readable?  The appearance of the symbol cues the person reading the schematic about the nature of the signal flow, be it input, output or bidirectional.
