hi prasad,

4 point. no tf files and lef files are different. i have answered for ur previous question
h**p://
u need tf file for data preparation u can get it with std cell library.

5. lib file contains timing information of that paarticular block. it does not contain any physical information. u can use lef file which contains physical information instead of gds. But left has only physical dimensions of that block on internal circuits. its just like black box.

Thanks
