However, moving a complex PCB layout from Altium’s .PcbDoc and .PrjPcb structure to Xpedition’s .PCB and .HKP (HyperLynx) format is fraught with peril. Layer mapping mismatches, netlist corruption, and component orientation errors have traditionally led to weeks of rework.

After translation, immediately run the Database Integrity Check in Xpedition ( Tools » Data Cleanup » Check Database ). A clean report means you have successfully bridged the EDA chasm.
