	A CXF can contain several components. A component can have several schematic symbols (at least one) and normally one package. A resistor for example has one symbol and one package. A logic IC can have several symbols (gates) while using only one package.		A CXF can contain several components. A component can have several schematic symbols (at least one) and normally one package. A resistor for example has one symbol and one package. A logic IC can have several symbols (gates) while using only one package.

	A symbol and a package consist of several graphic primitives like lines, texts, rectangles and pins in the symbols and pads in the package. Every primitive is written into one text line and starts with a specific identifier. Several predefined fields may follow. Every primitive can also have several user defined properties, each property written in an own line. Properties do not contain CR/LFs but can be ~~extraordinary~~ long (100000+ Bytes). The possibility of user defined properties for every primitive makes the format ~~very~~ future proof.<br><br><br>		A symbol and a package consist of several graphic primitives like lines, texts, rectangles and pins in the symbols and pads in the package.
