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.

just type in the command 'reports'

then double-click 'component report'

then the 'Generate report' button at the bottom

Probably already figured it out, the OrCAD Legacy menu File > Export has moved to a Top Level menu Export

Export > Pick/Place Data... (Generic Placement Data)

Export > Reports (Standard Reports)

Hope this helps,
