Importing Transfer Files

You can package a project and its contents into a single file, called a transfer file, to
facilitate e-mailing or copying. You can also import transfer files, allowing you to
share your projects with other DeLorme users.
You can import a transfer file with or without attached hyperlink files. When you
create a transfer file with hyperlinked files, you can choose to maintain the directory
information of common files. By doing this, the recipient of the transfer file can keep
a similar directory structure as the creator. This is helpful when a transfer file is
shared and updated between users. Note Transfer files do not include map data.
