OS LION & AC UP TO 17

Hello,
I did a search but not really finding any 'assurance' on this. Is AC 15,16 & 17 stable with OS LION?

Currently I am running on Snow Leopard on IMAC and so far has been good and stable without crashes or slow-down. But I will need to upgrade my IMAC to Lion if I want to transfer my files from MacAir [Yosemite] through target disk mode.

Anyone has good stable success with ac 15 -17 on OS LION ?

Thanks.
I have been to that link but what makes me nervous is this - font related performance issue AND not tested by Graphisoft.....

Hopefully someone who is using Mac OS Lion can chime in about the font thing.

Hi,

We have 3 Mac Pros (3.1 & 4.1) running OSX 10.7.5 Lion, and ArchiCAD 15 runs fine. Check your fonts with Apple's Font Book. We had some old duplicates and some corrupt obsolete fonts to remove.

Download the ArchiCAD key drivers designed for OSX10.7 from the website. Do not use the ones on the ArchiCAD 15 install DVD. If they get automatically installed, use the downloaded uninstall package and reinstall the newer version and restart before running ArchiCAD.

Regards,

Nick
