PCBColorizer is designed for automatic coloring schemes of PCB (printed circuit boards). For the program will require four (or three) input file:
1,2: the wiring diagram in the blanks format dxf, obtained export silk layer in P-CAD layout of the original board. Want to save as separate files upper and lower layers of silk.

3,4. A text file with a list of components. For the P-CAD 2004/2006 will be one such file, for P-CAD 98 such files will be two: one half of the data, half in another.

How to use:
Move all three (or four for P-CAD 98) received the file in the folder with the program PCBColorizer.exe. Open a text editor (eg notepad) settings.xml file and specify the file names.

Specify the output file name (or leave default): > Set the number of produced circuit boards: All of the different types of components will be divided into a specified number of assembly diagrams. At each such scheme will be painted only their components. The number of circuits is greater than one is recommended to ask for complex circuits with many different components, so as not to get one color unreadable blot from a coloring scheme. Other settings in most cases, no need to change.

Save and close the configuration file. Run this program PCBColorizer. In the console window will display the progress of the program: run through the list of layers produced with different types of components will then be made up of layers of silk provided dxf files, then the program has finished its work, press any key to close the window.

The result will be in the specified output files (for example, the current is out.dxf and out.htm). out.dxf can be opened in many programs to work with vector graphics: AutoCAD, CorelDraw, etc. By tuning of the program is mainly to work correctly with AutoCAD. In CorelDraw file is also opened correctly with proper choice of measurement units: inches (Inch). out.htm a tabular list of components and their associated symbols on the chart. Can be opened in any browser.
