Omni Systems, Inc. Mif2Go User's Guide, Version 55
> 35 Producing deliverable results > 35.7 Placing graphics files for distribution > 35.7.1 Copying referenced graphics to a distribution directory
When you specify WrapAndShip=Yes
or designate a WrapPath
directory, for HTML
output Mif2Go automatically copies graphics files from the
project directory to the directory designated by [Graphics]GraphPath
;
see §23.3 Locating graphics files for HTML.
Mif2Go can also copy graphics files from other locations.
To have Mif2Go copy the graphics files referenced by your document to a location relative to the HTML files generated for distribution:
; CopyOriginalGraphics = No (default) or Yes (copy graphics to the
; location specified by GraphPath)
When CopyOriginalGraphics=Yes
,
Mif2Go copies graphics from wherever they are referenced
by your FrameMaker document to one of the following destinations:
[JavaHelpOptions]GraphSubdir
(see §11.3.7.2 Letting Mif2Go set up the directory structure and copy
files)
[Graphics]GraphPath
,
if any (see §35.7.4 Synchronizing graphics settings for HTML output),
otherwise the WrapPath
directory
WrapPath
.
In other words, Mif2Go gathers referenced graphics by following the
relevant links in the source document; then, using the values of WrapPath
and GraphPath
, places those graphics where
links in the ready-for-distribution topic files expect to find them.
If your FrameMaker document references graphics files that are in a format not suitable for HTML output, and if you have provided alternates in the same directory with the same file names but a different file extension, you can specify the extension to use for HTML output. See §31.3.1.2 Substituting graphics files for HTML.
Note:
If you specify [Automation]OnlyAuto=Yes
(see §35.13 Postprocessing separately from converting),
and you are relying on CopyOriginalGraphics
to get your graphics files into the wrap directory,
they will not arrive; graphics files are not copied
when OnlyAuto=Yes
.
