Step 3: The archiving options sheet will appear and take a moment to analyze the files you selected in step 1. Once it completes the preflight analysis it will appear as in the image above.
Using the 'QuickPrefs' popup button, select an appropriate archiving style (i.e. - 'Plain-file archive to CD' or 'Restorable backup to DVD'), or if you wish to construct a custom preferences set different than that of the QuickPrefs preset options, select the appropriate disc size from the 'Archive files to' popup button (i.e. - '650MB CD', '4.7GB DVD', '8.0GB DVD (dual-layer)'.
In the example shown above, the 'QuickPrefs' popup button was used to easily select a 650MB archiving operation that will copy files in plain-file format to the archive discs. A disc title of 'Archive of My Documents' was chosen, and the date will automatically be appended to the title. Impression estimates that operation this will take 12 discs.
Clicking the 'Advanced options' disclosure triangle will reveal a host of advanced archiving options such as archiving formats, exclusion patterns, incremental and cataloging options.
