You can drag and drop views of the board outline, top/bottom side of the PCB, drill pattern, drill chart, integral parts list, component coordinate charts, and many others. Drawing detail templates automate the creation of detail views of via stack-ups, layer stack-ups, finger chamfers, V-score ,and several other common drawing element types. Component assembly PCB views can be filtered by variant, or can apply variant status in parts lists. You can also create assembly process documentation for process-driven PCB assembly and easily create color-coded drawings for each assembly process, process step charts, and process-based parts lists. Advanced capabilities also include drawing functionality for geometric dimensioning and tolerance (GD&T), coordinate dimensioning, blind/buried via support in via stack ups, PCB views, and drill charts. Design-driven documentation OrCAD Documentation Editor drawing content is derived directly from the OrCAD PCB CAD data. Components, pins, assembly mounting sides, layers, vias, nets, assembly variants, part attri- butes, drill holes and symbols, and other critical design data are imported to ensure document accuracy. External content such as JPEGs, BMPs, GIFs, and TIFFs may be imported and incorporated in the drawings. OLE objects, audio, and video files can also be imported and linked within the documentation and stored with the documentation release package. In addition, Gerber and DXF files can be imported and exported. ECOs All drawing elements in the PCB Documentation Editor are derived from the source OrCAD PCB CAD data. Opening the revised design in OrCAD Documentation Editor allows you to perform lightning-fast engineering change order (ECO) updates by simply refreshing the source CAD data. When refreshed, all drawing elements, such as PCB views, tables, details, parts lists, drill charts, etc., are updated with the new design data. All user customization for each element is maintained during the refresh, further minimizing documentation rework.
