I need to create a schematic and footprint library from several schematics.
What's the process for extracting these from existing schematics?
symbol and footprint libs from schematic
Re: symbol and footprint libs from schematic
Open the schematic, then open "Project Libraries" on "Place Component" panel on the left side and select "Design Cache". Execute "Library -> Save Design Cache as Library", enter library name and save it to file. You will get component library with all components from the schematic.
If you need footprints, start Pattern Editor, create new blank library and execute "Patterns -> Insert from Another Library", select the component library (you've got as written above) and all components from the library. That will extract all patterns from the components.
