PC with Windows FTP Instructions
(File Transfer Protocol)

Transferring Files between your company and Empire.

Files can be transferred to Empire's FTP site with a PC or Mac using almost any FTP software. It is best to use FTP software, not an internet browser like Internet Explorer. There are a number of software packages that can be downloaded free, like FreeFTP listed below, or you can use one that is already installed on your computer. Files can be sent either way "from your company to Empire" and "from Empire to your company"

Small files under 5mb may be e-mailed to Empire. You can also mail a CD or disk to the address below. Larger files may be uploaded to our FTP site. Depending on which FTP program you are using the dialog boxes and steps may be slightly different.
