    Convert 2013 Catalog to a 2012 Catalog

    Autodesk have released a new content pack ISCO for HDPE pipe. Unfortunately it is in release 2013, while due to our steelwork program, Prosteel we still have to use Plant 3D 2012.


    Is there any way of converting the 2013 catalog to a 2012 catalog.

    Thanks I was just been optimistic.


    It is probably a good time for Autodesk to review the catalog file format, currently in the available content packs there are 3 different file versions and this will only get worse as the years pass.

    I think so too. This problem always influence some users.

    High versions should be translated to the lower versions too.
