Hi folks!

I am having some problems and would love to have opinions from anyone else
out there who deals with libraries.  We purchased a company last year and are
currently assembling the boards that they created with different software.  The
problem is they can only produce A3 (B) sized drawing.  One of the
schematics is 7 sheets and the other is 10.  I've been asked to convert it to
Cadstar and get it down to a manageable number of C size sheets.  They
cannot export a format that I can import so I'm basically starting from scratch.

My question is should I create libraires EXCLUSIVELY for this other company's
products?  Right now things are *less than busy* and I'd have the time but is it
worth the trouble?  They keep telling me we'll never do anything with the boards
or schematics but as I am well-acquanted with Murphy's Law I KNOW
something will happen and we'll have to do some revision and it'll happen at a
time when I'm swamped.

This is your chance to be opinionated - let's hear what y'all have to say.
Please??

Jo
