Exporting and Importing FormFusion Templates

FormFusion allows you to import and export objects to/from the process tree, including entire environments, folders, and processes (templates). You can use this functionality to save a backup of a template, move it to another FormFusion instance, or share it with other users on the Evisions CO-OP.

Exporting to a File

Select the environment, folder, or process (template) that you wish to export from the process tree. In the Tools menu, select Export to File. You can also right-click on the object and select Export to File.

In the file browser, navigate to the location where you wish to save the file and select Save. FormFusion Export filenames are given the extension ".ffe". All print parameters, and components under the process will be exported to the file you specified.

Importing from a File

Select the folder that you want to import the file beneath. If you would like to import the file to the root level, then select the empty area of the process tree view (no node selected).

In the Tools menu, select Import from File. Navigate to the location of the file, then select the .ffe file that you want to import.

The imported template(s) will appear inside the folder that you selected.

Importing a Legacy Template

If you are importing a template from a legacy version of FormFusion, you will be prompted to enter the location of the fsfonts.ini file. This will allow FormFusion to correctly convert any PCL fonts to a comparable TrueType version.
