Export Fab notes as a text file

HSID

I would like to be able to copy my fab notes from my database and export as a .txt file.

This way my board house can easily edit the notes to their specifications and hopefully I could import in their modified text file

    Better yet - Set 'text' in the find filter; select all the text; SHOW ELEMENT, and save that file as .txt file. Import that into eXcel; do a sort (so the notes come together); delete all the useless stuff. Then simply rearrange the notes in order; and 'save as' an MSDOS text file. It's a little tedious, but will do it. I still revert to my original statement - I wouldn't take the time to do it.

    eXcel is my 2nd favorite tool, behind Cadence Allegro. If offers A LOT of flexibilities to mix-n-match and convert all sorts of text/numbers/etc.
