Export and import

Anything in the Library can leave it as a file: to keep a copy, to send to another church, or to open in another program. Right-click it and choose Export on this computer, or Download in the web app.

What each kind saves as

Item	Saves as
Song	a BibleLook song (.blsong), or OpenLyrics (.xml) for OpenLP, OpenSong and Quelea
Deck	a BibleLook deck (.bldeck) with its pictures inside, or a PDF, one page per slide
Service	a BibleLook service (.blservice)
Backdrop	a BibleLook backdrop (.blbackdrop)
Theme	a BibleLook theme (.bltheme)
Settings backup	a BibleLook settings backup (.blsettings), see A new computer
Picture or video	the file itself

A folder, or several items picked together, saves as one .zip with the folders inside it as they are in the Library. A video that is only in the cloud is downloaded first, so the export is always whole.

A service remembers which songs and decks it uses but does not carry them. Export those too, or the whole folder, when you send a service to another church.

Importing

Drop BibleLook files or a zip of them onto the Library, or pick them with Create › Add files. .blsong files can also go through Import songs. They arrive in the folder you are in.

An import is always a new copy: it never replaces anything, and importing the same file twice gives you two. A file made by a newer BibleLook than yours is refused with a note to update.
