Hello there,
Thanks for reaching us. Currently we don't support OrCad 9. We only support OrCad 16.6 and above.
There is a way to import the footprint, which was previously suggested by an user, which is to:
1. Open the .dra file in Orcad PCB editor (Lite) which yields the footprint in PCB editor.
2. Export the footprint out of Orcad as a DXF. And select the following in the pop up Orcad DXF out settings:
-Name the file as you wish
-Set format to Revision 14
-Set units as you wish,
-Select layer conversion type as ecad_mcad
-Then select the 1st four configuration boxes.
3. Click on export and you will find the generated footprint in the source folder.
We have added your suggestion to our new features thread, and we will let you know once the direct support of this version is released.
Hope you have a nice day!
