If I backup my library, is the resultant Library.bdb file mostly self-contained e.g. folders within the library, colour labels for selected refs etc, or is this info contained somewhere else?
i.e. if I'm installing bookends on a new computer what do I essentially need to copy over? So far it seems I need:
(a) the .bdb library file
(b) Custom glossaries
(c) Custom formats
Is that everything covered (preferences aside)?
thanks!

Re: Backup
The backup library contains everything that's in the library file (which is all metadata, groups, etc. -- PDFs are stored separately on the HD).
You should copy the library, the custom folders, and the attachments. I think that's it. Do not copy preferences, they contain some HD-specific information that won't work on the new Mac.
