Please, tell me about different ways to open an old ArchiCAD 8 file into ArchiCAD 14.
Is intermediated version will be a single way ?

ArchiCAD 14 (and 15) can read files from versions 8.1 onwards:

Nobody should have files in 8 format since 8.1 was a free upgrade, basically fixing tons of bugs in 8.0 But, if you do actually have an AC 8 file, you'll have to download a copy of AC 10 or 11 to do an intermediate conversion.

All of the steps to migrate a project are in the beginning of the AC 14 Reference Guide PDF in the chapter "Migration Guide for ArchiCAD 14".
