Managing Your Files

Use the features in the Manage Files view to upload BarTender documents, support files (such as images and certain database files), and folders and to perform other operations on those items, such as copy, move, rename, search, delete, and so on.

You can also copy a link to an item; change the color of folder icons; assign permissions to items; and sort items by name, by the date the item was modified, by the user who modified it, or by size.

When you select a document that was created in BarTender Cloud by using a template in the Template Assistant, you can use this view to edit the document, such as by connecting to a database, mapping database fields to template objects, and modifying print-time settings.

When you select any BarTender document, you can use this view to open it in the online BarTender Designer so that you can make certain types of edits, such as adding or modifying template objects and configuring page setup settings.

When you have several revisions of a BarTender document, you can use this view to access the Revision History page so that you can view and compare them. You can also roll back file revisions and add a comment to any revision.

To switch to the Manage Files view, click on the toolbar, and then click Manage Files.
