Library Folder


Overwriting Files

If a library file becomes out of date or the wrong version was copied, you may replace it with a new version. Overwriting files lets you minimize disk space and the number of library files.


Note

The ability to overwrite a library file is a privilege granted by the system administrator. If you do not see an Overwrite button ( ) on the View Library Item in Folder screen, you do not have permission to overwrite.



Note

You can only overwrite images and files.


Before You Overwrite an Image

When overwriting an image, the new image uses the same size dimensions and file extension as the older image. Be sure that the two images have the same file extension and size or make the adjustments at each occurrence of the image.

Before You Overwrite a File

Remember, all links that point to the overwritten file now point to the new file.
