# How to automatically open comparison files saved to iManage

> This article provides a guide for iManage users to configure Draftable to automatically open comparison output files saved to iManage. These settings are designed for users who prefer to work on comparison documents within iManage. 

<Info>
  **The settings menu was reorganised in Draftable Legal 26.6.** If you are on 26.6 or later, follow the "26.6 and later" tabs below. On earlier versions, follow "Before 26.6". To check your version, open Settings. The version number shows at the bottom-left (for example, v26.6.0).

    In the **Draftable Viewer,** select the **Save to DMS icon** n the Ribbon at the viewer.
