Hi!  I am trying to print a few items in 3d printer which supports STL file. I found out on Graphisoft site that I should be able to do it through save as "STL" but I don't see that option on my end. I have archicad 28. Please could someone help?

View what you want in the 3D window and 'save as' an STL file from there.
