    Working with sister files (World Files) in ProjectWise

    Kyle Ince
    Offline Kyle Ince over 3 years ago

    When attaching a raster (generally .tif files but I would assume the same for any world files) I noticed ProjectWise does not "copy out" the sister file (.tfw for .tif files). I hope there is a better workflow then either attaching the .tfw file as a raster (so ORD will copy it out) or copying the .tfw and .tif our directly of ProjectWise. Has anyone run into this?

      Hi Kyle The tif file needs to be associated with the tfw. I do this my scan references in PW. Then when you use the tif the tfw copies out also

      Thanks for the response Chris!! I have a follow-up question: What type of file associations do you have set-up for images and do you know if there is any special configuration needed? I tried running a scan on my image folder but it just skips all the files. When looking at the log is says failed on the .tif and .tfw ("Unsupported format could be the reason" beside it).
