PLT Link Options

Link settings in a Publishing Settings Library Template (PLT) enable you to create hyperlink and margin cross-reference styles at the publication level. These predefined settings are applied to your publication and establish how Ennov InSight formats links that were created during Publish time.

• The electronic hyperlink settings control the formatting of the hyperlinks that are published to the electronic output channel.
• The margin cross-reference settings control the formatting of the margin cross-references that will appear for output published to the paper output channel.

You can create, modify and view link settings (including color, size, and style) by clicking Links in the Publishing Settings dialog box.

Select a previously-created profile and links will use the settings defined in the profile. You can create a new profile by clicking Create Link Profile on the Link Profiles tab.

For paper publications, a margin cross-reference stamp appears in the margin next to text that contains a hyperlink. The value used to format this margin cross-reference is based on the Margin Cross Reference Text Format field in the Link Profiles. You can create the variable name for the links in this field and enter any other data you would like to appear in the final publication.

Ennov InSight cannot remove underline styles from text when suppressing an existing hyperlink or cross-reference. Default Microsoft Word templates normally dictate that the link style is blue text, otherwise you will need to clean-up PDFs if they suppress, disable, or delete any hyperlinks or cross-references.

Links do not resolve correctly if they target a document page and the page in that document exists twice in the same assembly. Links work properly if the same document is assigned twice with two different page ranges for splitting up a document.
