Hi,
You can back up your protocol file using Finder. Assuming that you've placed
SurfaceReader.app in /applications, navigate to:
/applications/SurfaceReader.app/contents/macos/protocols
You should find a file named using whatever you used in the Protocol Wizard as
the protocol name, with a .spu extension (e.g. Digi003.spu) - just copy this
file elsewhere and email its final version to me when you're done.
Best wishes.
Tim Burgess

Ok, is there a way in Surface reader where you can save the current state of a
project and return to it later should the app or the surface itself show
strange behaviours?
