Destination Directory will always be "apslocal\apscrjobs\".
2)
Converted files will be stored in a folder corresponding to its destination vendor/font

name.
3)
For example: If source file format is "APS Corporate" and the destination format is
ISM Monolingual then the destination folder for the converted file will be
"apslocal\apscrjobs\ismmono".
4)
Destination file-format will be same as the source file format. For example if source is
file is in RTF format then the converted file will also be in RTF format.
5)
ACII then whatever the source may be (.rtf, .txt), converted file will be stored in ".aci"
54

file format. Similarly if the source is selected as ACII then converted file will be stored
in ".txt" format.
6)
If "Save a copy in Unicode" option is selected while conversion then converted the
copy of the source file will be saved in Unicode text format. Destination directory for
unicode file will be "apslocal\apscrjobs\unifiles".
Note:
a) While installation the setup program will ask a drive in which the converted file(s) will be
stored.
b) In case of ACII format this behaviour is different.
