Chris, They can also create reports that can help you export things in a specific way, Robb has created a number of these for us here at our gallery. I think he's your best bet. Email: embarksupport at GALLERYSYSTEMS.COM or call (510) 652-8950 x233
He has an assistant as well that you may be able to get in touch with while he is on vacation. Good luck, Jessie Gillan Creative Director/Librarian Rogallery.com On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 2:29 PM, Misunas, Marla <mmisunas at sfmoma.org> wrote: > Chris, > The plug-in question would be one for Robb at Gallery Systems. > > The export goes like this: I copy the datafile & bring it up in our > Pachyderm-ready version of EmbARK.
