Saving file in .pla for exchange

Anonymous

I have been collaborating with another office on a project.
We have noticed that all .dwgs, .jpegs are not being saved in the .pla file, so we are having to create another folder to send to each other.

Has anyone else run into this?
This is my first post.

Thanks,

When you are in the Save File Dialog, you select the file type to be saved to be PLA file. There is an Options button which leads you to a subdialog. In this Dialog you can set additional things to be saved with the PLA file, like background pictures, external drawings etc. This may solve it for you.

Yes, thank you. I forgot about that option, I'll try that.
