You can also export records from ImageAXS Pro collectios to a file
format that you can import into the Macintosh version of ImageAXS
Pro and will be able to import into future Windows versions of
ImageAXS Pro, allowing you to create cross-platform collections.
This file format, called a DAS file, uses a file extension of “.dd” so
that it can be identified properly on Windows computers.

The current Windows version of ImageAXS Pro (version 4.0) does not
import or export DAS files. This feature is expected to be part of future
upgrades to ImageAXS Pro for Windows.
To export records to the DAS file format:
STEP 1 Select the data records that you want to export.
Each thumbnail or row of data is outlined in red to show
that it is selected.
STEP 2 In the File menu, highlight Export, then select DAS File from the
submenu that appears.
A file dialog box for exporting DAS files appears.
