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:
    • Select Project  Add Files.
    • Right-click any file in the tree view of the main Publisher Project window and click Add on the pop-up menu.
    • The Add File to Project dialog box is displayed.



    • To add a graphic or text file to the Support Directory, select the Support File or Directory radio button, then click the Browse button to select the file to be added from the Select File to Add dialog box.
    • To add a Framemaker document or book file to the project, select the FrameMaker Document or Book radio button, then click the Browse button to select the file to be added from the Select File to Add dialog box.
  2. 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.
  3. Click OK.
