Creating Transfer Files
A map file is made up of several different files; for example route, draw, and
waypoint files. A map file and its contents can be packaged into a single file, called a
transfer file, to facilitate e-mail or copying. Transfer files do not include map data.
To Create a Transfer File
Use the following steps to create a transfer file.
1. Click the Map Files tab.
2. Open the map file you want to create as a transfer file.
3. Click File, click Transfer, and then click Create.
The Create Transfer File dialog box opens.
4. In the File Name text box, type the file name.
Note Transfer files have .dmt extensions and are saved by default in the
C:\DeLorme Docs\Transfer Files directory by default. Browse to another
location if you want to save the file somewhere else.
5. Click Create. Your file is created and saved in the specified location.
