Packaging only those files used in a project

Post by TechWriter85 »

Hi, all.

I am accustomed to the FrameMaker packaging function that handily packages only those files that are active in a project. This means that by packaging a project and opening the project in a new directory, you can create a clean assemblage of only the files you are currently using. All drafts and also-rans are eliminated.

I've tried the Flare zip function, and it includes everything in my folders. Is there a way to identify only those graphics, page layouts, .css, etc., etc., that are actively being used by a project, and zip only them?

Thanks.

Hi
Just wanted to clarify. Are you looking to package the files for the entire project, or individual targets?
Thanks

You can use the Export function. You can find that on the Project Organizer tab.
You can export depending on conditions, on targets, on file tags etc.
Here is the help file.

I did mean the entire project, not individual targets. Thanks for the information -- it worked!
