Importing ZDO files

Program: Allplan 2016

Catalogs with label styles are saved as ZDO files.

Note: Make sure that the administration file (ZDO000.eng) is available along with the catalog file(s) for label styles so that you can use ProjectPilot to import ZDO files. The catalog file(s) cannot be read without the administration file.

8. Specify the destination folder: Office, Private or a project. Define the label style catalog file and click OK to confirm.
