External content such as JPEGs, BMPs, GIFs, and TIFFs can be imported and incorporated in the drawings. OLE objects, audio, and video files can also be imported and linked within the documentation drawings and stored with the documentation release package. In addition, RS274X files can be imported and DXF can be imported and exported. Always Up-to-Date ECOs The panel definition and all drawing elements are derived from the source Allegro PCB CAD data and always remain linked to that source data. These links allow you to perform lightning-fast ECOs by simply refreshing only the source CAD data. When refreshed, all instances of the original Allegro PCB CAD data (array instances, PCB views, tables, details, drill charts, etc.) are refreshed to display the new design data changes. All unique user settings defined for each instance are maintained during the refresh, further minimizing ECO documentation rework.
