Specifying an export path for graphic files

You can specify a path to a folder in which exported graphic files are saved and add information to each exported file.

Dorico by default exports graphic files into the same folder as your project file. If you have not saved your project yet, graphic files are saved in the default user folder of your operating system. You can save the exported graphics in a different folder.

Procedure

  1. In the Destination section, click Choose Folder next to the Destination folder field.

    The File Explorer/macOS Finder dialog opens.

  2. In the File Explorer/macOS Finder dialog, locate and select the destination folder you want.
  3. Click Open.

    The new path is inserted in the Destination folder field.

  4. Optional: Activate Include date in file name to include the date and time of export in the file names.
    Note

    Date and time are included in the ISO 8602 format, for example, 2016-05-01-143723.

Result

Exported files are saved in the selected destination as follows: <project name> <layout name> <date and time>.<file extension>.

Example: MyProject Soprano 2016-05-01-143723.pdf
