Artlantis 4.5 will open either an OPT/DB pair or an ATL file. But, it will only save as ATL.

If you have 7.0, you should have an OPT output option as shown in Djordje's screenshot. If you don't, then somehow the "Artlantis Out" add-on is missing from your Add-Ons/Import-Export folder.

But Ben's comments make me wonder if this wasn't a standard add-on, but delivered with Artlantis 4.0 ... not sure. Abvent only has the VectorWorks plug-in available for download on their web site. So, if you don't see "Artlantis Out" in your Import-Export folder, let us know ... and are you Mac or Windows?

I don't have the Mac plug-in, so can't help. You might contact the distributor that you purchased 4.5 from, or perhaps someone here might have a copy of the 7.0 Mac version they could send you.

Jemima, if you have a legitimately licensed full copy of Archicad 7, the Artlantis Out plugin should be in your installation, otherwise re-install it from the disk(s). If you can't find it, you should contact your nearest Archicad reseller. They should be able to help.

I don't know if it was included in the student version.
