Hi adolfchen,
you must use command File-Export - ASCII- Format and select what version you want. This ascii file you can import.

powerpcb how to open

If I only have the pcb file of powerpcb5.0, how to open it?

If you get the PowerPCB 5 demo, you should be at least able to view it on the screen -- but I guess you want to save it.

I do not know any way around the issue without having access to a fully functionall PowerPCB 5 if you want to convert the design. :?

good luck

Ted
