Export the Paper Catalog database
Exported databases are saved as .xml files and can be imported back into Paper Catalog at any time.
Before you begin
Before you replace your Paper Catalog database or reinstall system software, we recommend that you first back up
your existing database by exporting it to a remote location. You can choose to export all entries in the database or a
subset.

entries.
