Import Plug-Ins

Glossary  Return to Start  Previous  Next

 

Personal Knowbase supports importing articles from custom file formats using plug-ins. You must download and install Personal Knowbase import plug-ins separately from the main Personal Knowbase software installation package.

 

Information about currently available plug-ins is available from our web site at https://www.bitsmithsoft.com/plug-ins.htm.

 

Once you install a plug-in, Personal Knowbase automatically detects its presence, and the new file type is added to the Import dialog box. To use the plug-in, use the Import command and select this new file type from the Files of Type list. When you select the file to import, the plug-in imports the file and creates one or more articles from the contents of the file.

 

Example Plug-In

 

For example, one available plug-in imports Word DOC files on a limited basis. You can download and get more information about this plug-in from the web site link above.
