Discussion: Convert OCAD 11 trial version to OCAD 8

Does anybody know if you can convert a map on OCAD 11 trial version to OCAD 8 format?

I was using OCAD 8 to make a map but it stuffed up. When I opened my saved copy the symbol part took up almost all of the screen. Thus, making it impossible to do anything. I then downloaded OCAD 11 trial version so I could keep making the map. However, now I need to convert it back to OCAD 8 but I am not sure how to, any ideas?

I can convert it for you, I have a full OCAD 11 license.

Send me email!

If you need to do this again, if the symbol palette is too wide, you can click and drag the left edge of it to make it more narrow.

Thanks Terje will send it to you

Jjcote- I have tried that but it did not work

Huh. Works in my 0CAD 8.

Question for those who have done the comparisons...
Is it time yet for those still using OCAD8 to shift across to OpenOrienteeringMapper? If not, how close?

I've been giving oO-mapper a go for a week or so, from what i remember of ocad 8 it is on par, if not slightly better, for the map making process. there is no course setting as of yet.
The interface is pretty straight forward.
The big bonus for me is that I own no computer that runs windows, so I can't use Ocad to its full capacity any more (when running ocad in wine I could not save a map)
