Downloaded PTXPrint to new computer and would like to know how to transfer the project from the old computer

Question

I think the question is clear.  I need to set up PTXprint on the new computer so that I can access the projects already created on the old computer.  thanks

Answer 1

If you are a Paratext user, and if the project(s) in question are already on Paratext's server (by using Send/Recv), then all you need to do is to run Send/Recv for those projects (first on the old machine, and then on the new machine) in order to get the PTXprint settings.

If the above conditions are not true, then navigate to the "My Paratext 9 Projects" folder and select the appropriate project folder. Within that there will be a shared\ptxprint folder. Copy that over to the same location on the new machine, and it should all just keep working as it did earlier.

Thanks so much. Very helpful. I wasn't aware of the shared\ptxprint folder and now see that it is present because it is part of the downloaded when I installed paratext.
