<p>Sync uses these values as its defaults for batch creation unless you have saved Sync defaults from the Default Settings page (see <a class="xref" href="cns-r-ConversionProperties-DefaultSettings.htm#cns-r-ConversionProperties-DefaultSettings" title="The Default Settings page lets you save Sync default settings for batch creation.">Default Settings</a>).
