Please can someone convert this file to the old Altium format
« on: August 18, 2019, 09:13:01 pm »
I have downloaded the design files for an xplained board so that i can design a shield for it but I can't open the PCB file that will allow me to see the header positions in Circuit studio as circuit studio uses the older Altium format. Could anyone convert it for me please.
Note that I have made the file extension *.zip as the forum will non take a rar file but only rar will make it more compact than 5MB (zip sucks!)

What version i.e. Binary 3, 4 or 5 or the ASCII version?

Here it is converted to ASCII.

Cheers.

Thank you but ASCII does not work. I think CS uses Binary 4.
