Pick and Place dialog in Menu File/Input/Output Formats/Production/Pic-And-Place automat (pic & place)...

This dialog allows the creation of data on automatic "pick and place" into a text file. Coordinates are relative to the lower left corner of the PCB. If you however select "Only components on bottom", then the lower right corner is the origin. This is because you should insert the PCB bottom side top into your machine.

TARGET 3001! uses the coordinates of the center of each component being derived from the complete footprint image-outline.
