Saving a Copy of an Attached File

Whether an attached file is saved with a relative path in a library’s DATA\PDF folder or with an absolute path to a specific location, you can save a copy of the attached file to any location.

To save a copy of an attached file from an open reference:

  1. Open and view the reference.

  2. Scroll to the File Attachments field and highlight the file icon for the file you want to copy.

  3. From the References menu, select File Attachments and then Save As. Or use the controlright-click menu to select File Attachments and then Save As.

  4. Use the file dialog to select a folder, enter a file name, and Save the file.

To save a copy of an attached file from a reference list:

  1. Highlight the reference in the list.

  2. From the References menu, select File Attachments and then Save As. Or use the controlright-click menu to select File Attachments and then Save As.

  3. Use the file dialog to select a folder, enter a file name, and Save the file.

Note: From a reference list, if more than one file is attached to the reference, only the first one is saved to disk.
