I did exactly that and you are correct...
Could not find the eagle ULP, was not sure if it exists, i will try again.
A later post shows that orcad is just fine.
I hope you have read the "place cutoff stips of reels to one side of the
cnc, hold by pegs"
thing. i think it is a good idea, what do you think?.
I do no longer think the pick and place file is impossible, it is slightly
more
difficult than paste dispensing (because you have to fetch the parts)
but it is not undoable.
