You can also export the schematic directly in PDF format from the Output Menu (no
driver installation required).
The current schematic is now ready for board layout so if you have purchased a
Proteus PCB Design package you can move straight onto the accompanying
tutorial booklet for PCB Layout.
Library Parts
Introduction
The Proteus Design Suite comes with a significant installed base of schematic components,
almost all of which are already packaged with the correct PCB footprint. However, with the
number of new parts entering the market every day and the vast choice available to engineers it
is inevitable that users will have to either import library parts into Proteus or create library parts
inside Proteus.
Importing Library Parts
Importing Library Parts is by far the preferred option. It is both much faster to do, is far less error
prone and you can import both the schematic part and the layout footprint at the same time.
Proteus supports import via the Import Part command on the Library menu in either the
schematic of the layout editors. This import will work with all major vendor files such as those
generated by Ultra-Librarian, Samacys, SnapEDA and PCB Library Expert as well as through
common supplier portals such as Digikey or RS Components.
