The files include:

Creating Competition Files

The competition files are usually created when you have all of your entries and cards ready to go to the competition organiser. However any changes or corrections made after the files were sent, can be passed on to the organiser by creating the files and sending them again. There is no limit to the number of times the files can be created and sent as long as the organiser knows which version to use.
