Files in folders cannot be imported via the [File operation/Share] dialog box. If you want to import multiple files into one file, open the folder and select all the files. For multi-page works, the Management folder will be deleted from the File operation/Share dialog box. We recommend using Clip Studio's cloud service to load multi-page works. Alternatively, when importing a management folder from the device storage or an external drive, the management folder can be compressed into ZIP format in advance so that the entire work can be loaded into the management folder in the File operation/Share dialog box. |
