File>> Save As:

Look for the "Format" pull-down menu and select "Archicad 9 Project"

Forget it. There's NO paper size THAT small.

Be advised that your AC10 Library Parts will not go through to the AC9 file, because those are not converted back to AC9 format.

Dwight, haven't you caught onto the new trend toward wallet sized ( A8 ) architectural sets. They're very handy and easier to read than the head of a pin. The A9 fits nicely on a small mailing label. The A10 makes really neat confetti.

but beware: if you are using a mactel machine and the mactel build of archicad there is NO option to back-save . . .

i can't for the life of me understand the rationale behind that. a file format that is already platform independent shouldn't have a problem between its own chip architectures.
