The save to eps format was dropped from ArchiCAD 10. If you search the forum you will find other threads on this topic.

Search first, answer later.

Un the upper right corner, next to FAQ, is the Search link. You can also click here:

http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/search.php

Input EPS as a keyword. See the results. Read them all.

Then ask. But, by then, you will see that there is no need to, as fifty people asked in the last year or so the same question.

The last 49 should have searched first. Or is it really 42?

if the eps file is still urgent.

Download trial version of Acrobat.

Print ArchiCAD drawings as .pdf.

Open in with Acrobat, save as .eps.

If you don't mind getting your hands dirty using command-line tools, you could output your files as pdf and use Ghostscript to convert them to eps. Ghostscript is free, but not exactly user-friendly. You convert from pdf to ps with:pdf2eps <sourcename.pdf> <tempname.ps>
Then convert to eps with:eps2eps <tempname.ps> <destname.eps>

Let me know if you want to try this but can't work out how to install Ghostscript. I would need to know which platform you work with (Mac/Win).
