Exporting a Style

Click Manage Styles in the PerfectIt 5 ribbon and select the style you wish to export from the Current style sheet dropdown list:

Select a style to export

Click Export:

Choose whether you want to allow the users you share your style with to edit it or not. If you choose Yes users will be able to import, run and edit their copy of your style; if you choose No users will be able to import and run your style, but they won’t be able to make any changes to it.

Choose whether to allow users to edit the style

Choose a filename and location, and click Save.

Once you have saved the PFT file, you can email it to a colleague who can then import it into their copy of PerfectIt, or you can import it into PerfectIt on a new computer, for example.

Tip

Instead of exporting each style individually you can back up all of them at once. To do that, make a copy of the file PerfectIt.Styles.sdb found in this folder on your computer:

C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\PerfectIt5

To restore the styles from your backup file, copy it into the folder above.
