where to find libraries from older versions of Archicad

Hi

I am updating work from previous versions of archicad to v.12 and do not have the libraries. Is there somewhere on the Graphisoft (or other) site where i can download libraries from older versions of Archicad?

Specifically, I have a v.8 file I need to open in v.12 to PDF. I only have install discs for v.10 through 12 and therfore have loads of missing library parts.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Go to :: http://tr.graphisoftus.com/

Click on "Library Archives." There are 8.0 & 8.1 libraries in .pla format as also an v8.1 to v10 subset library (you'll have to install AC10 to use it).

These are probably US libraries so don't know if they'll work for you or not. Strangely, I can't find a similar archive for INT. Is there one?

Thank you so much, i'll try it right now...and that fact that it's US version is better as i was in the California when i created this file.

Dang - you're lucky!

I'm still wondering, though, if there are any INT versions around.

...what's INT?

INT = International.

AC comes in variations based on language and library set. The US libraries are optimised for feet/inches as opposed to other libraries which have a metric base.
