I want to check if a DEF view matches Layout view (similar to LEf vs. Layout checking), but in order to that, I can think of loading DEF in ICC2, converting to LEF, and then comparing LEf vs. Layout. I have access to Lef vs. LAyout checker tool, but not Def Vs. Layout.

I was able to load the def and read it in ICC2 tool. But how do I convert the shapes/data into LEF data and output it as LEF with polygons (just the area that has top ports, etc)
 

I don't understand the reasoning here... I think you are going the wrong way about this. are you sure you understand how a LEF and a DEF are used in a design flow? what exactly are you trying to achieve?
