Adding, rearranging, and deleting project files


After you create a project, you can add, delete, and rearrange FrameMaker files in the project.

Adding files to a project

You can add a file to a project by dragging and dropping the file into Publisher or by using the Add File to Project dialog box.

Adding files using drag-and-drop (Windows only)

To add files using the drag-and-drop method, select the file(s) or directory from Windows Explorer, then drag and drop the files into the tree view of the main Publisher Project window.

FrameMaker files added using drag-and-drop are displayed at the top of the file list, and other types of files, such as graphics files, are added to the Support directory.

Adding files using the Add File to Project dialog box

Unlike the drag-and-drop method, adding files using the Add File to Project dialog box lets you determine where in the project hierarchy the files are inserted.

Here's how to add a file using the dialog box:

  1. From the main Publisher Project window, do one of the following:
The Add File to Project dialog box is displayed.

  1. Specify where the file should be located in the project by selecting either Add File After or Add File Before from the drop-down list then selecting a file name in the text box.
  2. Click OK.

Rearranging project files

Here's how to rearrange project files:

  1. From the main Publisher Project window, do one of the following:
The Arrange Project Files dialog box is displayed.

  1. To move a file up or down the file list, select the file, then select the Move Up button or the Move Down button.
Note: You can also delete files from this dialog box by selecting the file you want to delete and clicking the Delete button.

Deleting project files

The Delete option removes the FrameMaker files from the project tree view and deletes its generated files (the FrameMaker files are not deleted from your computer).

Here's how you delete a project file:

  1. Select the file in the tree view of the main Publisher project window, then do one of the following:
Note: If you want to delete all generated files for troubleshooting purposes, select Project » Delete Generated, or click the Delete All Generated Files toolbar button . All generated files are deleted, but mappings, style definitions, and other project settings are retained.
WebWorks Publisher Standard Edition displays a confirmation prompt.

  1. To delete the file, click the Yes button.
Note: You can also delete files using the Arrange Projects File dialog box. Use this dialog box if you need to delete several files. See Rearranging project files for details.
