    No, that is not a brd file as I do not know how to convert it to a brd file.

    Is the attached skill file working?

    I copy a padstack into the same location to make a duplicated via but your program does not detect it.

    See the latest version attached as a 17.2 context file.

    I don't know whether this will work with APD.
