Summary
This command is used to export the current document into the indicated third-party format using the associated exporter.
Access
The related indexed commands are accessed from the Schematic Editor or Schematic Library Editor from the File » Export sub-menu.
The command entries to export to third party formats are only available in the menus provided the associated Exporter is installed as part of your Altium Designer installation. To view and change which Importers and Exporters are currently installed, access the
Extensions & Updates view (click on the
![](/documentation/sites/default/files/wiki_attachments/298291/Bobblehead_Icon_AD19.webp)
control at the top-right of the workspace then choose
Extensions and Updates from the menu). From the
Installed page, click the
Configure control at the top-right to access the
Configure Platform page. Enable the Importers/Exporters required, then click
Apply. You will need to restart Altium Designer for the changes to take effect. In some cases, an exporter may require installation of a dedicated extension. Extensions can be found on the
Purchased tab of the
Extensions & Updates view.
The exporters available will depend on the active document's type (Schematic or Schematic Library).
Use
After launching the command, the active document will be exported to the indicated third party format. Depending on the format, this may happen directly or after configuration of export options in an intermediate dialog.
Tips
- The Extensions & Updates view can also be quickly accessed by using the Add Exporter command located at the bottom of the Export sub-menu.
- The Save As and Save Copy As commands are used exclusively for saving the current file in a native Altium Designer format.
