    idf file import

    Guest Oct 5, 2006 7:41 PM
      I am trying to import an .IDF file from Orcad into SW2005 with circuitworks lite. The board outline and components translate very well, but the cutouts and holes do not translate. Has anyone figured out how to do this?

          Hello Tom,

          I don't know if you have the answer yet but try this,

          If you open an IDF file there is an option button available.
          click on the button and the import options window appears.
          Select IDF. Here are two settings available. One is Add board drilled holes
          were you looking for.

          With regards
          Joop
