I haven't done this but I have heard that when you buy the actual ArchiCAD the trial version automatically switches to 'full' version and the files you created in the trial version will be converted to your new 'full' ArchiCAD files.

If it's a family, you can temporarily import it to Revit to use as reference, but purge it out before loading your family int... 5 More Answers
