what is .PMK file?

Hello,

I have received a .PMK file. Is that a archicad file and can it be converted to .dwg or dxf? Would be amazing to have a fast answer.

Much Love Per

Per,

It would be helpful to know what version of Archicad you are working on as well as why you received a PMK file.

In older versions of AC the layouts of drawings were called Plotmaker or .PMK files. These files could be sent to the printer or plotter of choice. You drawings were assembled in a stand alone program called Plotmaker much along the lines of Quarkxpress except for CAD drawings.

That function is now incorporated into Archicad in the Layout Book function. If you have AC 13 you can open a .PMK file. I have not done this but I would guess if you can open it you can save it out to a DWG or DXF if this is what you need to do.

If you add a signature to your profile and give your version of AC and platform of use it will help others to be more specific in their answers.
