C.3 Renaming or relocating the Mif2Go project file

By default, Mif2Go creates a project file with the same base name as your FrameMaker document, and extension .prj. By default the project file is located in the same directory as your FrameMaker document files. However, in a configuration file you can specify a different name or location for the project file:

[Setup]

; PrjFileName = name of project file that references this directory

PrjFileName=D:/path/to/yourbook.prj

If Mif2Go cannot find the specified project file, Mif2Go looks for a file named mif2go.prj.

Path to and paths within the project file must be absolute

You must specify an absolute path to the project file. Also, the path values Mif2Go creates within the project file must be absolute. Some users always keep book and chapter files in the same directory; others do not. Sometimes all books are in one place, all chapters in a few others. It is possible for the book and every chapter in it to be in a different place. Yet you need a single project directory for the project. An absolute path makes the conversion location predictable and stable.

Copied configurations are automatically updated

A configuration file created by Mif2Go specifies the default name and the input directory for PrjFileName. If you copy a configuration file from another location to the project directory, then set up a new conversion, Mif2Go updates the copied configuration file to fix the path to the new project file.
