Need to use my laptop G4 PowerPC for As Builts so put AC 11 on it, but have 14 on iMac. Anyway to go back and forth?

Is there a way? Or NO? I just cant find it in the forum maybe not typing in the right "verbage"

I think you should not bother trying to work on the same file with AC 11 and 14.
You would have to save from AC14 as AC13, from AC13 as AC12, from AC12 to AC11.
Also all data specific to AC12, AC13 and Ac14 would be lost in the process.

I can only imagine drawing stuff in AC11 and opening or merging it into the AC14 project in the office. You have to figure out if that is feasible for you to do.

I concur. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part. Obviously, the best thing to do is upgrade my Powerbook G4 to a shiny new MacBook Pro. Thats another story. For now its AC11 at my As-Builts then working on it in AC14 in the office.
