Hi
I am doing project in Altium Designer 10 ,where I supposed to make seperate PCBs from single circuit , I have made the circuit on multiple schematic sheets and connected the components by "OFFPAGE" connectors.
Now I want to make pcbs where sections of circuit will be on different PCBs physically,How can I achive this Kindly give steps.
 

Unfortunately this isn't possible in Altium Designer as far as I know: every PCB needs its own PCB project, even if they're all part of a bigger design. So you won't have another choice than splitting up your design in multiple projects and replacing the logic ports with actual board to board or wire to board connectors.

I did one trick , in the same project I added separate pcb files as the no. of PCBs to make and then in each pcb file imported the schematic data and deleted the components along with rooms which are not related to that particular PCB.
This worked for me as I made the PCBs and the project is working.

So which means that with the help of single schematic you have separate PCB's right?
