• When a unit-specific file with a long name is exported to a BVD file, the name is
shortened to 20 characters or less.
• If characters that cannot be used in Windows file names exist in the unit-specific file
or folder name, these characters are deleted and the file name is shortened. If all
the characters are deleted, the file is renamed as a BVD file name, "newfile.bvd".
• If a unit-specified file with a content source file extension (.pdf, .xls, etc.) is exported
to a BVD file, the BVD file is created with a file name ending in .pdf, .xls, etc. When

Explorer's [Folder Options] dialog is removed, the correct BVD extension can be
confirmed.
