converting orcad footprints to allegro(Without transolb)

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi ,
      I am new in the field of allegro PCB design , and currently facing some problems in creating land patterns(Footprints) in allegro.
      I have  a querry -> can I transalte an orcad footprint to allegro?
I tried one method and that is , place all the footprints(That need to be changed ) in a board file .MAX format and use the utility transolb.exe, but i was not succesful in doing so.

Do any of you guys have a separate method?

It would be of great help for me

Thanks and regards
Niraj

    If you have a .max file. Can't you use the Cadence supplied OrCad Layout Translator? Start -> Programs -> Cadence SPB 16.0 -> PCB Editor Utilities -> OrCad Layout Translator
