Working with PMK files in AC11

Anonymous — Fri, 26 May 2023 00:32:51 GMT

I'm currently working on an older project that was drawn with AC 9, then converted to many drawings as .pmk's and placed into a .lbk. Now, the project has resurfaced and I need to revise these pmk's and have their changes be reflected on the existing plotmaker layout book.

I can edit in plotmaker 9, but it's horrible as far as being precise while drafting.

Any suggestions? I've tried opening the pmk in AC11 and editing it, but once I go to save it, it doesn't give me the option of saving it as a .pmk anymore. I figure if I could save it as a .pmk, the layout book would update properly.

I'm on OSX 10.4 w/ access to AC 9, PM9, and AC 11.

Migrate the project to AC11 as outlined in the help file.

The AC10 and AC11 New Feature PDFs (in your help menu) spell out the process in long, painstaking detail.

If you hit a problem with any of the steps (and there are a lot of them), let us know!

I figured it out...sometimes the most simple solution goes unseen.
