+=== Uploading Files ===
+In order to upload a file, select the Folder that you want to place the file in then select **[Upload]**. This will trigger the standard [[PergamonMystic:linkedhelp:file_upload|file upload tool]] allowing you to select a file and start the upload process.
+**Note: At this time, there is no functionality within Mystic that requires directly uploaded files. This facility within the //File & Attachment Manager// is therefore disabled - please use the upload facilities within the specific functional areas, such as the BISON import dialogs**.
+=== Downloading Files ===
+Downloading files permits you to make copies of files that have been attached to records using the specific functional areas (such as reader and item images), as well as downloading backup copies of files created by Mystic itself, such as report PDFs and Database Archives.
+In order to download a file, select the file in the list of folders to display its details.
+Click the **[Download]** toolbar icon in the **[Transfer]** toolbar group to trigger the download. Download file transfers are performed in conjunction with your browser. The browser will therefore decide where to place the file after download, and if sizeable will also provide you with status information regarding how complete the transfer is.
+Typically, there will be an allocated folder on your workstation where your browser will place the downloaded file (e.g. a **Downloads** folder in your personal account area). Once downloaded, transfer the file to its final intended location.
