PCB TRANSLATORS - REVIEW OF THE BEST S/W

[Romanp]

Hi,
Many years I used PCAD PCB design EDA in my work. I am not a critic of Altium corporate decision. But Altium leaves me (by the way - like as many other professionals) without any alternative. I decided to work with Mentor Expedition.

My question is - which PCB Translators are the best on the market?
I need to convert PCAD data base into Mentor Expedition.

Thank you,

R.P. [/b]

Hi,

There are many conversion softwares available...Either you can buy the software for conversion or you can even outsource to some companies.

You need to ask it to Mentor support because they must have tried it.
As you no converter in the world are accurate as 100%.After converting it requires some modifications.

So first check,it whether your converter is doing properly or not.Then you move forward for the purchase.
