NEW XD file won't open on PREVIOUS XD version. Grrrrrrr

I have TWO computers ... one at work (with Mojave 10.14) and one at home (with Sierra 10.12). I saved an XD file at work with the NEW XD, then tried it at home with the PREVIOUS XD ... and ... it WILL NOT OPEN. I know ... I need to install the new version of XD, but it's not compatible with Sierra and I'm not upgrading my OS.

So, how can I export the file from the NEW XD to be able to open in the PREVIOUS XD?

Thank you

Unfortunately, this isn't supported in XD because we have features in the newer version that aren't supported on the older. Your best bet is going to be exporting as SVG and reimporting into the older version of XD.

So, if I understood it right, it is Adobe policy that new versions of Adobe XD won't support projects files generated on previous versions? And this is going to happen *every time* new XD versions with new features are released?

No, it's Adobe policy that new Adobe documents will not be supported on old versions of XD. If I understand your original question correctly, that's what you were asking, right? You should be able to upgrade your older documents to a newer version of XD at any time.
