Pattern import format

 

Import parameter to set the type of import for patterns

 

The program can import patterns from several different file formats.

 

Cut Planner CPOUT

User defined CPOUT

MSS/Keytrix format

Giben Optisave AC & AD files

Pattern exchange - ASCII/Unicode CSV (PTX)

Pattern exchange - Access (MDB)

Giben Optisave - AC file only

 

- Select the option required

 

Refer to the topics on Import file formats for details on setting up user defined formats and the rules for the import of more complex formats.

 

 

Notes

 

'AC file only' is for importing patterns from AC files without the part size information in AD files. Parts are listed in order of first appearance in the pattern.

 

ASCII/Unicode formats are simple and general formats which can be created by most software packages. The Cabinet planning formats are those produced by proprietary cabinet planning software.
