# Importing Synk 5 documents [Std/Pro Only]

Synk 6 can import existing Synk 5 documents as Synk 6 scripts. It cannot import Synk 5 batch scripts.

## To import a Synk 5 document:

- Ensure that the Synk 5 document was run or saved by Synk 5.2.3 or later
- Select Import from the File menu
- Select the Synk 5 document to be imported

Note that there are a number of settings that exist in Synk 5, but not in Synk 6 (and vice versa). Synk will discard settings that appear only in Synk 5, and use the standard defaults for those that appear only in Synk 6. Affected Synk 5 settings may include:

- Alias resolution
- Type/Creator rule criteria (only available in Synk 6 Pro)
- Quit Synk and Ask to Continue actions
