ArchiCAD vs Revit origin + north forIFC coordination

Hi All,
i'm working on a project on archicad , and i'll coordinate with a revit user, so the first thing is to correctly set the project location,
ArchiCAD and revit location systemps are diferent, so i searched on the net, and i found this web page that describe the workflow to make it easy,
this way, you keep your working space orthogonal in archicad, and revit users decide which north they use ( project north or geographic north ) without any problems, als updating the geometry won't move any items from their places

I hope it helps
