Should work just as well. <BR /> <BR /> I have no problems with Illustrator PDFs, but I'd advise to turn off Illustrator's Save illustrator editing options (or whatever it's called) when you save to PDF. I guess that's what's confusing Archicad.<BR /> <BR /> If you're not able to save compatible PDfs from Illustrator, a workaround might be to Print (using the AdobePDFprinter utility) to a PDF file.
