Need to send your project to someone else? It’s a little different than sending a project file for other editing apps.

  1. Can you make DR automatically save a project file into a directory every time you save.. So you don’t have to remember to export it? I can see people forgetting to do this and backing a project directory would miss the project file.

  2. Thank-you for a fantastic guide to this requirement, really well presented and a great explanation. I’m sending a .drp file, but I’m going to consider getting cloud for joint working!
