Mixing
Using files 'included' in a wixlib
We use a wixlib that has all the dialogs (most of which can be shared with other products on our portfolio).
One of these dialogs will show a EULA. This EULA is added to the wixlib project as (RTF) content (Build Action: Content, Copy to output: DontNotCopy)
Now next to showing the EULA, I must also install it with all the products.
Can I some how reference the EULA that (has to be?) is embedded in the wixlib?
Or do I need to copy this file to all the wixproj of all products? Given it's a EULA, which won't change that much, it's still a hassle if it does change. I trying to avoid that.
I'm guessing, I need to copy it to all products, but I wanted to double check.

In hindsight, I overthought this. I simply added the file to a component in the wixlib project which can be referenced from the consuming Wix project.
In the wixlib:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi">
<Fragment>
<Component Id="C_General_EULA" Directory="INSTALLFOLDER" Guid="{INSERT_GUID}" KeyPath="yes">
<File Id="F_General_EULA" Source="LocalizationEULA_en-us.rtf"/>
</Component>
</Fragment>
</Wix>
In the consuming Wix project:
<Feature Id="EULAFeature" Level="1" Display="hidden">
<ComponentRef Id="C_General_EULA"/>
</Feature>
Again, in hindsight really simple.
