-preferImages
(As of 3.1.002.04)
Specify the image search location
Syntax
-preferImages fromXatw|fromDisk
Description
When Merge is processing image file names found in the data stream it has an algorithm that it follows, see: -imagePath. One portion of that algorithm is affected by this -preferImages option. Depending on the setting of this option it may choose to look for the named image file inside the XATW being used by Merge or choose to look in the file system.
The default setting is fromXatw.
Recommended Review
That default, fromXatw, is for backward compatibility purposes. We recommend that the setting be fromDisk. But of course, that choice is up to you. If you wish to change the default setting please revise your $O/Merge.prm file.
See -imagePath for the search order algorithm.
