Archiving

Our firm is trying to archive a project, ArchiCAD 11 - that was completed as a plp (teamwork) file. We used various hotlink modules thank linked into a single documentation file. If we turn that documentation file into a pla (archive) file - will all of the hotlink modules also be bundled up? I'm not sure how to archive with Hotlink Modules.

The whole content of the Hotlinked Module is always present in the host file. This is why ArchiCAD can display it even if it does not find the Hotlinked Module's Source File.
So the content will be there in the PLA.
On the other hand, I personally would also include the Hotlinked Module files in the archived package. Save them in the same folder as the PLA file for simplicity.
