If I have an 80 page document, are you able to open up the complete document and delete the pages you don't need? Or do I have to save separate the pages and save each image as an individual pdf?

Importing PDF files
As when importing any other external file, use the File > External Content > Place External Drawing command. If the PDF file being imported is password-protected, you will have to provide a password when prompted.
If you are importing a multi-page PDF document, a dialog box prompts you to choose which of the pages you wish to place.You can also place PDFs into ArchiCAD 2D windows through drag-and-drop. In the case of multi-page PDFs, the dialog box that prompts you to choose a page will also appear.
A PDF file placed on the Layout, like any other item, becomes a Drawing. The Drawing name consists of the PDF file name. The page numbering is displayed in the Source View field of the drawing.
Like any other external linked drawing, placed PDFs can be automatically or manually updated in ArchiCAD.

Stuart,
Thank you, you have been most helpful again. That should do it. I've never used archicad, but know that compatability issues can be very annoying when importing and exporting out of different programmes. Mac vs PC...whole other issue again!
Many thanks,
