■ File Types

Track List Document
	The default file type of mac version PlayBackers. That holds all tracks and informations. Not compatible with iOS versions. Available only on a single device natively because the tracks included have reference to audio file place on the device as URL. Re assigning of references is needed when the file is open on another device / version. The file size is small.
File Package Document
	Similar to Track List Document, File Package Document has tracks and informations, and in addition holding actual audio files of referenced inside it. Available by iOS versions too. Referencing to audio files has been completed inside a document file ( actually a directory ), so it is available on other devices / OS to open the document file without reasign. Please note to large file size. This file type needs one to one audio file at a track. User can use 'Convert Linear PCM to AAC' option at the time of generate.

Generation

User can generate File Package Document by exporting from Track List Document.
Go File Menu > Export…>File Package on Track List Document window of macOS versions, then select stored place.
