Adding documents from your local file system using Windows Explorer

From the places list in Microsoft Windows Explorer you can add a document that already exists on your local file system to a place. The document is added as a working draft.

1. In Windows Explorer, right-click the document to add and click Add to Place. You can also drag and drop the document into the place. See the topic Adding documents to a place using drag and drop for more information. Using drag and drop, you can add a folder containing multiple documents to the place in one step.
2. In the window showing the list of places, open the place in which to add the document.
3. Click the folder in which to add the document. If you do not specify a folder, the document is added to the top level of the place.
4. Change the file name if you do not want to use the original file name.
5. To specify a document type other than the default type for the place, click Change, select a different document type, and click OK.
6. Click Add.
