project . The system will ask you whether the entire disc project
or only the calculated data should be deleted . Set a check-
mark next to the desired option and click OK to proceed with
the deletion .

Tip: Large disc projects sometimes take lots of space on your
hard disc (up to 50 GByte). When space becomes tight, you
can delete ‘calculated data’ without changing the disc proj-
ect itself. The data will then be recreated later on when this
becomes necessary.

dialog window . Use the selection button ‘Read from’ to select

Arabesk 6 .

‘Start reading’ button will allow you to import the disc in the
currently active disc project .
If the currently active disc project is not empty, a correspond-
ing message will appear which you will be able to confirm with
Yes to continue with the import or close with No to cancel the
import .
If you have not inserted a storage medium yet, you will be
asked to insert a storage medium . Confirm with OK when you
are finished .

Information: This provides you with information about the
active disc project . At the top of the dialog field, you can see
which disc project is currently active .
