Downgrading brd/sch from V5 -> V4

nickds1

I've been playing with V5, and very nice it is too! (thanks guys).

 

However, I publish a few designs on the web & elsewhere, and the bottom line

is that very few Eagle users will be on V5 for some time, especially as its

a cost-option and V4.16r2 is pretty stable.

 

So, can I save/export a V5 project in V4 format, such that V4 users can work

with it? Even MS Word allows this sort of functionality. A ULP that stripped

all the V5 extras (attributes etc.) would probably be the route to take...

 

Is this possible/has it been done?

 

Thanks

 

Nick

    At the moment you've got two options:

    - Stay with V4.16r2, it's pretty stable

    - Upgrade to V5 and restrict yourself to designs within the limits of

    the freeware edition of V5. Are your published designs too complex ?
