    I wonder if Cadence schematic file from DFII can be translated into any
    other design file format, like EDIF or DEF?

    look here:
    CIW->File->Export->...
    Design Data Translator's Reference
    and of course you can translate to netlists by using the appropriate
    netlister...

    The CIW exporter can be used to export layout. But what if I want to
    export the schematic to be placed and routed?

    with the CIW export you can :
    - export schematics to EDIF
    - export schematics to CDL
    - export to a DEF file as long as you have abstracts for your std cells (if not create by
    importing the LEF into cadence) by using Export-PRFlatten to generate autoLayout and then
    Export->DEF from the autoLayout.

    You can create a verilog netlist using NC-Verilog or VerilogXL integration into Composer. (ie
    Tools->Simulation->...)
