Importing an Altium pcbdoc file failed

Hi all,

I tried to import an Altium pcbdoc file from supplier to PCBeditor 8.0, but I failed.

Nothing was shown in PCB editor.

Here is the pcbdoc file:
DFN5_6_2024-01-16.pcbdoc (19.6 KB)

Could anyone can help me to figure out what’s wrong with the pcbdoc file?

I tried to import your file but nothing happened. I also do not see any error message, so I don’t know what is going on.

This file is in ASCII format. KiCad only supports importing the binary PcbDoc format.

Btw, support for ASCII SchDoc format will be merged soon Altium Schematic ASCII file format support (!1801) · Merge requests · KiCad / KiCad Source Code / kicad · GitLab

But adding support for ASCII PcbDoc is more difficult.

For now you should be able to import this file into EasyEDA and then to KiCad
