    Hi Vanilson,
    It is possible.
    *** Firstly you must save Protel pcb file as Protel PCB 2.8 Ascii. (Save as --> Export to Protel PCB 2.8 Ascii) Then,
    you can import this file in Orcad Layout. (Import -->Protel PCB) Now you have .max file. Lastly. you must use
    Orcad Layout to Allegro Conversion Program. (max to brd file conversion)
