It might help to say what CAD system you need libraries for. Do you just
need footprint dimensions and you build them yourself, or do you mean
ready-to-use libraries for your system?

And maybe I'm missing something but QFP128's are fairly easy to place with
today's technology, maybe you should question your vendor about their
requests.

                Hello,

                I have an interest in purchasing a CAD Library. Is there
anybody besides
                SMT Plus selling libraries, I would like to compare pricing
and content.
                2nd, how are the libraries you might have purchased measured
up to DFM
                type content? For example, I am in contact with an assembly
outfit that
                wants 3 fiducials for a qfp128, center and 2 corners.
Another idea I am
                interested in is if wave flow patterns are supplied such as
an soic-16
                with robber pads.

                TIA for any experiences conveyed.
