BoardStation to Altium??
« on: January 31, 2013, 05:32:01 pm »
Hi all-

I'm new here but read thru quite a few threads before registering.

Hopefully someone can give me some kind of answer on this. I have (9) old layouts that were completed in our old software, PANTHEON, a couple of years ago..
I'd like to get those designs into Altium for reuse. I'd like to have full functionality once there.

Is there any way to do this?
Thanks in advance for any help.

save as odb++ and pull it in through the Camtastic module.

So I'm back to this project. I read my gerber and drill file into Camtastic and then went thru the reverse engineering process that Altium has in their Help.

One problem.... most of the unplated drill holes did not convert from the Camtastic files to the new PcbDoc file. They are in the Camtastic document but they didn't convert to the PcbDoc.

Any idea why?
