Organising Drawings

Each Drawing (.EFD - Event Floorplan Designer Drawing file) should be saved into its own folder.

The reason for this is because over time, EFD can automatically create PDFs, DWGs, Spreadsheets etc (full list below), so your folder can accumulate a lot of files, see example image below.

A description of the files you may find in your folder are as follows:

• .EFD - Event Floorplan Designer Drawing - This is your editable master file.

• .EFL - EFL File - This is a lock file which is automatically created to stop the master .EFD file being edited by more than one person, see here for help.

• .BAK - BAK File - This is a backup of your .EFD file, but one version behind. You can rename this and use it in case your .EFD gets lost or corrupted.

• .XLSX - Microsoft Excel Worksheet - This can be either your exported meterage report or Timelog.

• .PDF - Adobe Acrobat Document - These are usually found in their own subfolder (PDFS) and are exported versions of your floorplan.

• .DWG / DXF - Adobe Acrobat Document - These are usually found in their own subfolder (DWGS) and are exported versions of your floorplan.

• .PNG / JPG / GIF / BMP - Images - These are usually found in their own subfolder (IMAGES) and are exported versions of your floorplan.

• .HTML - HTML Document - This file is created when the Floorplan Live PDF links are exported.

• .ZIP - Compressed (zipped) Folder - This file is created and contains files you have specified to be included from the Views.
