Common Compatibility Issues with Altium Designer and PADS Software

Altium Designer and PADS are commonly used PCB design software, and we support PCB file orders designed with these two types of software. We have found from screenshots provided by our customers that opening the same file with different versions of these software can lead to bugs and incompatibilities, resulting in PCB errors. Although the likelihood of such situations occurring is relatively low, to avoid them, we recommend ordering with GERBER files exported from the same version of the software as the version used during design.
