Or do converters have a restriction of working only in one directory? For my taste this whole external file business is already very complicated. A Mover would be a clean solution but also another concept to learn. (my head is already spinning from converters, templates, previewloaders, graphicloaders, etc.) About your code: how do you decide when to copy and when to move? Shouldn't there be some parameter in the interfaces? Cheers /Andreas
