Local Resources
This section contains the setting for the local Resource file that will be used by default. This XML file contains all of your locally created resources. This is a mandatory field.

| Important | Ensure that you select a valid local resources file. Do not select a workspace definition file (WDF), which is a different file than the local resources file. |
Workspace Resources
This section contains settings for the Studio workspaces resources that the Add-In will use. A system administrator or Studio administrator usually supplies the values for this section.
Using a Studio workspace ensures you have the required resources to create Documaker documents, and helps ensure the resources in you use are consistent with those in Studio.
| Important | If you will be creating documents that will be based on a Studio workspace, it is critical that this section be correctly configured. Contact your system administrator, Studio administrator, or project manager for help if necessary. |
