Exactly, it makes it more readable. In my case the use of off-page
connectors where enforced by style guide lines from management. The
script enforces that nothing is connected except directly with a wire or
indirectly with a buss or off page connector. Thus if a net doesn't look
like is connected anywhere else, it isn't.

Joshua,<br>

It looks like you handle buses with rippers, which mine does not. <br>
<br>
The reason for using an off-page connector symbol is largely
stylistic -- I like the added clarity and I think it makes the
schematic more readable.<span class=3D"HOEnZb"><font color=3D"#888888">=

Hello Dave,<br>
<br>
I'm not sure when one would need this. gnetlist can netlist
multiple<br>
schematics simultaneously, and PCB can load multiple files
right? Or<br>
am I missing some fundamental point here?<br>
