In File - Document Setup – Output - Resources - Separate Resources Folder, what will happen if I change this to common Resources Folder?

At the moment my Resources are in various places on my hard drive so I would like them all collected into one place.

Your help is appreciated.

Tony

This will only affect the files as they are published on your server, not on your Mac. What you might want to do is save an archive of your site. This will bring all of the resources together into a common Media folder, and create a copy of the original site with everything linked back up to that new Media folder.

Save your document first, then look in the File menu for Save Archive. Designate a new folder on your Mac where the files will go, and okay it. It takes a few moments, and the document will open and close and open again, and then you’re done.
