Allegro PCB --> Export Placement ????

I have a two sided PCB and the goal is to generate two placement files; one for the top, and one for the bottom.

How is this accomplished?

Currently if I run File --> Export --> Placement, it generates one file with the top and bottom components mixed together in one file. Also the bottom side coordinates appear to be relative to the top origin looking through the board.

Tools --> Reports -->Component report seems to generate the same mixed result.

Yes, that did the trick. Thanks so much

I have no idea how to do the post processing on the output. I suppose I could pump into excel and see how much damage I can do.

I suspect the Contract Manufacturer will want the placement coordinates from the perspective of each side.
