How do I access my purchased jpegs in ArchiCAD?

Hello, I am 8 days into using the free 1 month trial of Archicad 18. I placed an order for and downloaded the Stonework - Volume 1 from http://www.arroway-textures.com/en/contact.

One textures, order # 25788.

What folder in my iMac do I put my jpeg files in for use in ArchiCAD?

I have OS X 10.9.5.

Please help thank you,
Scott Miller

They can be in any folder you like anywhere on your system (local drive or network drive).
You just have to tell Archicad to load that folder as a library with the Library manager - FILE menu > Libraries and objects > Library Manager.

You can then associate those texture files to your surface materials in the surface settings dialogue.
