Project Info - export formats

Anonymous — Mon, 22 Dec 2014 22:32:30 GMT

I was hoping to be able to quickly print to PDF the 'Project Info' or export it into excel but it's not easily feasible at this time.

Yes I did a screen shot to print it but I also made a 'dummy' layout to recreate the project info with text field then put other text fields with the automatic text boxes next to it.

It would be nice to be able to export the project info into a database.

Thanks in advance for any insights.

Have you tried the 'Export' button in the Project Info dialogue?

You don't say what version of Archicad you are using (best to add this and your OS to your profile signature - link at the top of this forum).

I just looked in 17 and it is there.
I am sure it was there in previous versions as well and it will be there in 18.

Barry,

Thank you for the response and as recommended I added my computer specs under my signature.

Well I am on AC 18 latest build and the only option is to export/import to XML format which is nice but requires a lot of editing to have to show up correctly in Excel unless I am missing something?

Does the AC window version have more options under export?

I tried some free online XML converter to Excel and those worked better but every entry ended up on a different spread sheet of excel.

Warm Regards,

Vincent
