Cache Policy

Choose whether a URL is downloaded from the Internet or a previously downloaded local copy is used.

• Auto-manage cache
— The file is downloaded only if the file at the specified URL is newer than the local version.

• Force reload from web
— The file is always downloaded from the Internet.

• Use local copy only
— The local copy of the file is used and no Internet request is sent.

Type of Local Storage

Choose how the downloaded file is stored.

• Permanent
— The file is not deleted.

• Persistent
— The file is only deleted when size requirements demand it. Currently, the total permitted size of local copies of remote files is 25Mb.

• Temporary
— The file is deleted at the end of the current session.

Store Read Only

Stores downloaded files as read-only. This is a useful reminder that the remote file is not being changed, and local modifications could lead to confusion.

Append ?fmt=raw

Appends the string “?fmt=raw” to the end of any URL that is submitted for download. This is necessary if the selected site is running Bentley Publisher, because such sites default to sending a JPEG image rather than the raw design file.

?fmt=raw only works if the web administrator has enabled this feature in Bentley Publisher.

Specify local copy

Specifies a location and filename where the URL should be downloaded, rather than the default location.

OK

Accepts the bookmark and closes the dialog box.

Cancel

Closes the dialog box without accepting the bookmark.
