   File Type	Description
   Acid Project File (*.acd)	An Acid project file contains all of the information about a single project. Track layout, envelope settings, and effects parameters are saved in this project file. This type of file does not contain any media, but only references to media files.
   Acid Project with Embedded Media(*.acd-zip)	An Acid Zip file contains all of a project's media files and the project file in a compressed format. NOTE If you save a project in .acd-zip format, the project file and all media files are copied to a temporary folder. If you continue to work on your project after saving the .acd-zip file, your changes will be saved to the files in this temporary folder. You can change the location of the temporary folder on the Folders tab of the Preferences dialog.

   NOTE Select the Copy all media with project check box to create copies of each of the project's media files in the same location as the project file. This allows you to collect all of a project's assets in a single location.
