Re: ORCAD into Frame

     My associate says you need to go to the ORCAD spt bulletin board.
     The number is in the help file.

     Then get:
     ipcx driver to invert the color schemes to black on white
     pcx driver which has no inversion

     Then replace your printer driver with the above and print
     to a file.  The result is of course the pcx file format.

     Hope this helps.

Hi Folks -- I have another question.  I've got a bunch of application
schematics to bring into a Frame document.  Frame doesn't like the
ORCAD-produced dxf files, so I dragged them through Autosketch, after which
Frame swallowed them happily.  Then I decided I wanted to thicken the lines
(they were all hairline thickness), but noticed that the dashed lines had
become solid.

I called Autosketch and they said, sorry, in Autosketch no thick lines can
be anything BUT solid.  Arggh!

Does any of you know of a good solution to this problem?  Come to think of
it, never mind, "good" --ANY solution will do.
