Hello, the library translator from pads to Allegro or OrCAD PCB Editor 17.2, work well and fine. Follow this steps: 1- In pads library manager select one lib for example LIBRARY01, then select ALL "Parts" and export export it in a "LIBRARY01.P" file in a folder for example LIB01 2- Repeat the same procedure at point 1, but for ALL "Decal" of the same library off course, you can export a "LIBRARY01.D" file. Now in the folder LIB01, you have 2 files one for parts ".p" and one for decals ".d" 3- In PCB Editor Allegro or OrCAD, select the input translator lib, then specify the path of library (for example LIB01), then browse to find the pads_lib_ini.ini, and select th output folder, LIB01 or another folder. REMEMBER to flag the "Show options dialog" for MAPPING the exact layer and others objects. If all are done well the translatation start, and you need only to wait the end of translation. Maybe you need to adjust the options of translations for exact mapping layers and other elements, and repeat the translation. Hope this help ! Let me know, Best Regards, Gianni. www.gpstudiopcb.it
