altium designer (protel) is good....... but if you have orcad, you can use Orcad PCB Designer pakage (especially PCB EDITOR). which is a great tool. I too love altium......

Also I think Netlisting will also do the trick

can you put any .... tutorial for netlisting i never get this concept i am whole newbie in PCB stuff plx

 

[rjkrocks]

tutorial for netlisting.........i never get this concept

netlisting (or Net listing) is the listing of the net (web) which includes the components and its connections to other parts of the net (web: components and connection).......

I wrote

Also I think Netlisting will also do the trick

it is theoretically possible, but as I went for further study about this I could see that this is not a simple task..... But for Eagle....... we can export it to Cadence Allegro format using a user created program.......

See the thread
**broken link removed** post by Marcel.......

It says::

Hi,

I've written a script that creates a netlist that can be imported in
Allegro for my own needs (have done the schematic under Eagle and my
subcontractor uses Allegro for routing). It's now available on Eagle
download page (export_cadence_telesis.ulp).
Hope this will help.

creating a netlist in each program follow different steps and it itself contain a lot options...... So What I sugest is to fid the manual for the programs that you use for netlisting

Comparison of EDA software - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

it lists the the comparison of EDA softs......
as Goldsmith says, in Eagle, direct export to altium pakage is there (which is company defined), But from the downloading area of eagle you could get export to cadence (user software as mentioned above)...
You own Eagle & Cadence softs. so you can use this pakage............ but if you use altium, you may have a chance for having a good design from eagle (because inbuilt altium support of eagle--I have not tested this)... But you have to get Altium (demo)..... The choice is yours......... weather to take Cadence...... or to take Altium
All the best
