# File types


	documents	Contracts, policies, amendments, annexes, etc. that consist of a collection of different clauses. Documents can be exported to PDF or MS Word (.docx) files.
	binders	Collections of documents that together make up an entire transaction(e.g., a main contract with a pricing annex and several technical annexes). For more information, see: binders.
	folders	Folders – collections of other files and subfolders
	clauses	Clauses consist of paragraphs and subparagraphs of text, optionally preceded by a title. Clauses can be as short as a few words, but can also span several pages, although typically they will consist of one to four paragraphs. For more information, see clauses.
	concepts	Central actors for the automation of a document. Concepts are the legal terms that are defined inside a definition list and allow users to dynamically change clauses and reuse them through different contracts. For more information, see: concepts.
	definitions	Text files that qualify as the definition of a certain concept.
	proxies	Shortcuts to other files or folders in the file system
	images	Logos, graphics, PDF files, Word files and other images.
