About Interactive Publishing
The interactive publishing script of the Creo View ECAD Adapters opens the ECAD tool with a Creo View menu added to the environment. Use the menu to accomplish these tasks:
Publish one or more files to the Creo View format.
Activate cross-selection between the ECAD tool and Creo View.
The advantage of using interactive publishing is your access to view and modify the design files before converting them. This chapter describes how to open an ECAD tool using the interactive publishing script and how to use the Creo View menu. A publish script name contains the tool name and publish. For example, the publish script for Cadence Allegro Package Designer is apdpublish.bat. Continue to the next section to start using interactive publishing.
