ELEVATIONS RENDERING QUESTIONS

[Anonymous]

Hello guys!
I have archicad 20
and I want to save my elevations(or sections) as
1) a pdf or jpeg with textures and materials and stuff like that(textures as in the perspective).

or 2) to save them as dwg document
can you tell me the steps I have to follow in order or achieve this?
also,you know how can I save a layout from archicad as a specific size?
I mean how can I save something from an archicad document as an A2 or A3 ?

Hello kangnguyen,

1) If you want to see 3D surfaces you have to use a 3D view (texture ≠ surface into Archicad) and you can use "parallel projections" into your 3D view -> then clic on File/Save as/PDF or JPG

2) File/Save as/Dwg since a 3D view or a 2D view with different options. About DWG you have to configure all DWG translator parameters before 😉 Files/Interoperability/DXF-DWG/DWG translators

Finaly you can publish a layout to create a PDF in a special paper size
