Importing Archicad Pln Files

[MCADNZ]

Hi,

We have a client that creates concept designs using Archicad, They wish us to undertake working drawings/documentation. 

 

Is there any way of importing these files into chief without converting to DWG files.

 

Many Thanks

You can not bring the file into Chief directly unless you convert it into a DWG as you stated or perhaps an image file like a PNG, size the image using Chief's tools then trace over it.

Interesting. I use Chief to create concept designs and do the construction docs in Archicad. (Unless it's a small project.) DWG is the best way to go, though.
