GreekPIC Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 I have a zipped project (can't remember where I found it) with the boards in *.pcb format. Which program opens them? Any way I can import them into Eagle?Nikolas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Try to use a text editor to open it first and check the header see if the file belongs to which program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Many software packages use this extension. I have several in my archives that I made on various programs. I have to try opening them in one program after the other until I find the one which will deliver a board layout. Thanks for the tip Trigger. I will try that the next time I run into this problem.MP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreekPIC Posted July 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Trigger the header writes:PCB FILE 9 VERSION 2.70I found the site where I downloaded it from and in other projects this guy says he used Protel. So I guess it might be the same.Is there any free demo of Protel?Thanks, Nikolas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogo2520 Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 I use a cheap program called PCB Wizard that saves the file in *PCB formatand they don't have a free trial . The prog only cost about 50 bucks. good luck gogo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
