PROCAD

Drawing > New/Open > Open > Further > Procad

For Procad files there is also the possibility of list processing, i.e. all DXP files in a list are converted in one step. To do this, you use a text editor to create a file with the file name extension .DAT, which contains a list of all DXP files to be converted.

When you call the Procad function, the following dialogue window appears

To start list processing, click Yes and then select the appropriate DAT file.

To open a single DXP file, click on No and select the desired DXP file.

PCDRAFT.DAT

This file allows you to specify the conversion of "real" dimensioning and a colour for "unreal" hatching (patterning).

Please note:

• If desired, you can also load DXP files via the HiCAD Start Centre.
• Conversion is based on DXP files. An external PROCAD to DXP converter is required.
