A QPack is a compressed file that contains both the Project File and the Data File. It has a file extension .QPack. It is usually the best way of sharing Q projects with Q users who do not have access to your network.

There are three options for QPacks:

  • To save a .QPack file to your PC or network, choose File > Save As and changing the Save as type to QPack.
  • To send a QPack to someone by e-mail, choose File > Share > Email. Selecting this option will create a new e-mail in your default e-mail program. The .QPack file will automatically be attached to the newly created email.
  • To send your project to Q Support, choose File > Share > Send to Q Support (Encrypted). This option uploads an encrypted copy of your project and data, and generates a support ticket for the Q Support team. Include a Message with your QPack to tell us what the issue is, and what part of your project we should look at.

As long as the person who receives the pack has Q installed, they will be able to double-click on the file to open the project. If the user chooses to save the project using Save or Save As in the File menu, they will be advised that Q must break the pack into two separate files: a Q Project File and a raw data file. The .QPack file will then be separated and the two files will be saved separately.

If the person you are sending to does not have Q installed, you will need to give them an Install Q Reader link, which is available from your Customer Page.
