How to download an old version of a plugin?

I am trying to format a pdf export that will work in ShapeDiver, using the PDF Plus plugin.

However, only the 2.07.0 version is compatible with ShapeDiver, and I have the 2.1.0 version which is the only downloadable version I can find.

I have tried to use the PackageManager to go back to the 2.07.0 version by changing the version to 2.07.0 on the dropdown menu and then clicking “Install”, which prompts a restart of Rhino. However, when I restart it, PDF Plus is still the 2.1.0 version.

Is this the correct method of trying to switch from a recent update to an outdated one?

I will also note that the file I was opening and closing already has blocks from PDF plus 2.1.0 version, so I’m not sure if that makes a difference. And I am using Rhino 8 on a windows PC.

Hi Marah -

When using older versions of a plug-in, you need to make sure to disable the “Automatically update packages when Rhino starts” option in the Package Manager.
