backwards compatibility

autodeskguest

Over the week I designed a video board in Eagle 5 freeware on my laptop.

However now I need to route the board which is too big for the freeware

version.  I have Eagle 4.13 licensed on my computer at home, but it cannot

open the Eagle 5 files.  Is there anyway to get backwards compatibility out

of the files?

 

 

  • Hello Craig !:

    Over the week I designed a video board in Eagle 5 freeware on my laptop.

    However now I need to route the board which is too big for the freeware

    version.  I have Eagle 4.13 licensed on my computer at home, but it

    cannot open the Eagle 5 files.  Is there anyway to get backwards

    compatibility out of the files?

     

    This only indirectly possible using ULP like UpdateMAN - but with some

    rtestrictions. You may need a lot of time to do it .... Backward

    compatibility in never guaranteed due to some new design features.
