Plotmaker compatibility

Anonymous — Mon, 10 Feb 2025 15:41:14 GMT

Just wondering if it's possible to output a 8.1 plotmaker file to a 8.0 plotmaker file. I work in 8.1, but I was wondering if I was to save the project to 8.0 to share with others, would they be able to finish the project in 8.0? Or... any other ideas?

You can't open a PM3.1 (that comes with AC8.1) layout book with PM3.0 (that comes with AC8.0). Not even via import! And there is no Save As PM3.0 or Archive function.

While PM is essentially key-free, you will need a key to update your views.

Bummer dude.

Cheers,

I guess they'll just need to upgrade. Kinda weird logic on Graphisoft's side though - you can down-save PLNs but not LBKs. Maybe in the next version.

Thanks for your help.
