We are using Cad2Cad to convert cad data to Philips VIOS text. The properties tab references a Package Dimensions file that can be used but I have no idea how that is generated or how it's formatted. It seems it would be worthwhile to generate one ma

As fortune might have it, many CAD mfgrs use .pcb for their files. Just for a few: Zuken Visula, Pads Power-PCB, ACT CAM-350 and derivatives. Why not: * Read it into your present CAD system [assuming it's one that can read .pcb files] * Generate

The challenge you will have with ProWorks is it doesn't understand electronics. To create a dynamic legend (parts list) based on ODB++ or CAD import probably won't be easily created. Understanding components and seeing the CAD data related and sort
