2.2.9 RULES FOR KEYWORD FILE IMPORT
Before importing the keyword file, check the file structure and
the settings to ensure that the following conditions are met:
• Each keyword in the keyword file must be on its own line
within the file.
• The general IP Director settings must be set to manage 64
character keywords. Otherwise, the keywords will be
truncated to 12 characters if they are longer.
• The text file does not contain extra characters, such as #, %,
@, TABS, etc.
2.2.10 HOW TO IMPORT KEYWORDS
Once you have checked that all the conditions are met to
perform a proper keyword file import (see previous section), you
can import a keyword file with multiple keywords in it, for
instance a team line-up or squad.
To import keywords, proceed as follows:
1. In the Keyword List, select the menu File > Import in
the Keyword List.
The Keyword Import window opens.
2. In this window, select the .txt file that contains the
keywords to import.
2.2.11 HOW TO CANCEL THE LAST KEYWORD IMPORT
You can cancel the last import of keywords by selecting the
menu File > Undo Last Import in the Keyword List.
