    Hi Shiva

     

    You can extract IDF files which can be seen in mechanical softwares that have the import IDF files.

    IDF are 2 files

    first representing the board outline ,holes,keepouts,components placement.

    the second file contains 3D info about all components (extracted from the placebound subclass + height info )

    There are few softwars that can view/export IDF files

     Thanks to all. But i'm not able to download the files from oracle and capinc. And the Pro E is not a free software. Any help. Is there any other free softwares available?

    Hi, Try this:

    http://www.oracle.com/webapps/dialogue/dlgpage.jsp?p_ext=Y&p_dlg_id=7163482&src=6674433&Act=44

    It is a 15 days demo of a sort of universal viewer.

    It loads directly your brd file... and you can view it also is as a 3D image up to 16.2 version.

     Bye,

     Alicia
