Publishing Elements and Effects

Apply different changes on a published document using publishing elements and their effects.

To view publishing elements in the assembly tree, select Publishing Elements (located above the assembly tree). To hide publishing elements, clear the Publishing Elements option.

During volumization, the assembly is not locked. You must wait for volumization to complete before attempting to select any elements.

Publishing Elements

  • Special sheets - Special sheets enable you to organize and divide the sections of an assembly. You can insert, modify, or delete special sheets individually or in bulk wherever they are needed in the assembly.
  • Tables of contents - In addition to being special sheets, tables of contents help reviewers to navigate through an assembly. You can insert, modify, or delete TOCs individually or in bulk within the assembly. Calyx RIM provides regulatory-compliant TOCs inserted in the assembly templates. Calyx RIM provides an ability to include links to TOCs.

Include Links to TOCs

The Include Links to TOCs field defines which TOC elements will be included in the TOC in addition to the elements defined in the Tree Elements to Include in TOC field.
  • If you create a new assembly from an assembly file or from an existing assembly, all selected TOCs are cleared.
  • When duplicating an element with a TOC, all TOCs are preserved.
  • The display order of the links to TOCs will be the same as the TOCs order in the assembly.
  • If a target TOC is deleted, the current TOC is automatically updated to exclude the link to the deleted TOC.

Publishing Effects

  • Overlays - Use an overlay to apply headers and footers on a published document.
  • Page markers - Use a page marker to divide a document at a particular page. Special sheets, TOCs, and volume breaks can be inserted as page markers.
  • Volumes - Use volume breaks to divide the assembly into logical sections. Each volume represents a unique output PDF intended for the paper output channel.
