Can I span data over multiple discs so that I can use my Disc Publisher as a back up device? (Windows Only)

The latest version of PTPublisher can span data over multiple discs using the Data Project type. The latest version of PTPublisher can be downloaded here. 

Instructions:

On the data project screen, if you have selected more data than can be burned on the disc type selected you can check the Span Disc box. 

Click the Span Report to see how PTPublisher will split up the data.

When a span disc is selected, the print template automatically changes to one that labels the discs "Disc X of Y, 1 of 4, 2 of 4, etc." depending on how many discs are required to complete the job. 

Note: Backup Projects can also be scheduled using the Schedule Project button on the project summary screen. You can see the Backup projects you have set up under Advanced Projects - Backup files and folders. Backup Projects use the Span disc option.
