When archiving or preparing a library for transport in Final Cut Pro, what task should you complete?

When archiving or preparing a library for transport in Final Cut Pro, deleting rendered files is a crucial task because these files can consume significant storage space. Rendered files are created during the editing process to facilitate playback and preview quality but are not necessary for the transport of a project unless a high-quality preview is needed for review or approval. By deleting these files, you effectively reduce the library's size, making it easier and quicker to transfer while ensuring that only the essential media and project assets are included.

This process also prioritizes the original media files, which are needed to rebuild the project on another system once the library is transported. Although converting files to proxies, exporting the library, or sharing it to the cloud can be part of different workflows, they do not directly address the optimization of space for archival purposes.
