Converting between Magic and Cadence layout

[pokemonstation]

Hello all,

I was wondering if there is a tool/methodology that converts Magic layout to Cadence layout. What happened is my group has a chip layout design in Magic and we want to fabricate it. Since the layout is quite large, we are trying to see if there is a simple way to convert Magic layout to Cadence layout. Any insight will be appreciated. Thanks a lot!

one good way out is export GDS file from magic and import it in to cadence layout.
keep an eye on layer table.
draw the schematic again in cadence, do LVS and verify.
