Path Directory for Artwork

Recently in a project I was working on we were given a to map artwork to a container field in FileMaker. We started by exporting a directory listing. We then imported that into FileMaker to then map the images. This little tip is to help export those directory paths.

In terminal (Mac) navigate to the folder you need to map. Input this code:

find "$PWD" -type f > ~/Desktop/documentPathFile.txt

That will generate a file (and save it to your desktop) you can import into FileMaker.
