[Framers] Pull imported graphics into one folder

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Pat,

My ArchiveES program will take a book and archive all of the FrameMaker
files into a single folder, and the graphics into a Graphics subfolder at
the archived book's folder. Any text insets will be put in a TextInsets
subfolder. It updates all of the internal links for the new locations of the
graphics and text insets.

In your scenario, you would want to let ArchiveES actually copy the
FrameMaker book and documents and graphics, instead of you moving them ahead
of time. If you want a walkthrough of this, please let me know. Thanks.

Rick

Subject: [Framers] Pull imported graphics into one folder

Hi -

I need to consolidate several manuals, each of which has many imported
graphics that are in a folder in the manual's folder. Once I've brought all
the non-image material together into a folder, is there a way to copy images
from their original location into the new folder? I had hopes Package might
do it but it skips graphics that aren't already in the folder.

The images still display in the new combined manual but our directories are
rather messy, with people tending to rename folders and I have no faith that
those links will remain valid indefinitely.

I've already been shot down on using copied instead of imported images
because there is a lot of consolidation to be done, so please don't suggest
that.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm using FrameMaker 2017 on Windows 7.
