Copying Out Documents

You can copy out a document when you want to download a copy of that document to your working directory without checking it out.

You can copy out documents regardless of their current status (locked, checked out, exported, final), as long as you have File Read permission to the document.

Select one or more documents.
Select Document > Copy Out.

Copying out all the documents in the selected folder or work area

Select a folder or work area.
Select Folder > Copy Out.

Select one or more documents that are already copied out to your working directory.
Select Document > Refresh Local Copy.

The copy of the document in your working directory is replaced with the server copy of the document.
