Pattern Names Help

DipTrace comes with vast component and pattern library sets.
The names of the patterns contain information about their type, size, pads layout, etc. IPC-7351 Naming Convention is used to assign names to all patterns, except those contained in non-IPC libraries. You can find the description of the naming system used for the non-IPC libraries in this PDF document.
