Hello everybody,

is there any way to import old Layout MAX Files into the OrCAD PCB Designer 24.1?
In "File-->Import--> CAD Transllators" this option no longer there.

Tahnks and best regards

JuriV

    You can still do this if you have access to version 22.1 or older. Remember to enable the User Preference (Setup - User Preferences - unsupported - layout2allegro_unsupported) and restart the tools, you can then see it under the CAD Translators menu.
