Web Publishing Wizard - Creating Web Publishing Files

Concept

Once you have selected your records and completed the previous steps of the Web Publishing Wizard, the next step is to create the data and images that will appear on your site. This process will create export files that only contain the records and fields you have selected to share online. The associated images will also be optimized for the Web. The process of creating data and images may take awhile depending on the number of records selected for export and the speed of your computer.
