uploading pln files

Anonymous — Mon, 06 Mar 2006 03:18:01 GMT

Can someone tell me how to upload a picture from an archicad floorplan to a post. I've save them as png and the files are alway to big. It looks like its saving the whole floor plan instead of just the objects I want to send.

Do you mean like a "Screenshot?"

If the image exceeds the maximum size, use something like Photoshop to recompress the JPEG to be under 256kb.

On mac it is easy to take a tiny screenshot, and there IS a utility on PC to do the same.....

"Print Screen SysRq" is the button Dwight mentioned
After this ,if you don't have "photoshop" you can use "Paint" from program->accessories and paste the clipboard contents
Hope we help you
