You can import experiments from Mbook (as zip archives) or from ChemDraw (in CDXML format) just by clicking on the applicable button (highlighted in red in the screenshot below):
After clicking on this button, the user will be able to load the reaction scheme as a CDMXL file or to import a zip file containing an Mbook experiment:
Another option would be to copy and paste the experiment from ChemDraw using the "Edit/Copy As: CDMXL Text" (Ctrl+D) command.
If the file is in another format or it does not have a reaction or a recognizable structure, a warning will be shown.
The compounds detected will be searchable in the compound database. If they do not exist, the user can make the decision to create them.
If you are loading a zip file containing an experiment created with Mbook, you will get a dialog box like the one below (also with the ability to import attached documents and consumed sources):
