How to open Archicad 12 file in Archicad 10? Is it possible?

Anonymous · ‎2010-01-13

I am using AC 12 and one of my client have AC 10. Is it possible for me to convert my files compatible for AC 10. Do we have any other options so that my AC 12 .pla files can be viewed in AC 10?

Your advise on this will be highly appreciated.

AC 12 can backwards save to 11; from 11 you can backwards save to 10. Any new features in 11 or 12 not in 10 will of course be lost from the model. Most library parts cannot move backwards, so the person in 10 could get a massing model with no lib parts...unless you used just the AC 10 library while working in 12.
