Prerequisites

Prior to running a bulk volumization, it is recommended that you verify the volume publishing settings before you insert volumes into the assembly.

To volumize an entire assembly:

  1. Right-click the assembly root and select Volumize.

    A message prompts you to confirm the volumization.

  2. Click OK.

    For each volume added, the book icon appears in the assembly tree.

  3. Volumization creates volumes in the assembly according to the volume publishing settings.

    — If a document is too large to fit in a volume, volumization will break up the document, creating page markers and volume breaks where appropriate.

    — If you create your own page markers manually, volumization attempts to create volume breaks on those page markers if the page marker falls within the volume publishing page size, plus/minus the buffer.

  4. Volumization ends when the process encounters a locked volume or the end of the assembly.

Volume Icons

When you create and manipulate volumes, icons in the assembly tree indicate volume statuses and features associated with the volumes. You can position the pointer over a volume in the assembly tree to see the number of pages in the volume. (It may be necessary to refresh the Volume Attributes page to see an accurate volume page count.)

Icons Description
Represents multiple volume breaks. Publishes all volumes where the starting range breaks fall under the collapsed multi-volume icon, including the last volume whose end break may fall past the specified range. To see all the individual volume breaks, right-click the element and choose Expand Range.

Represents a single volume break. A volume begins at one volume break and ends at either the next volume break or at the end of the assembly.

With this icon selected, when choosing Publish Request (Publish Paper > Volumes in Selected Range) only this volume will be published.
Represents a volume where the starting and end points are fixed.

Revolumizing

Ennov InSight enables you to re-bulk volumize all the volumes that existed from the point where the volumization was invoked.

When you run bulk volumization again (revolumizing), the existing volumes, page markers created by previous volumizations, and any special sheets attached to those volumes and page markers, will be deleted.

If there are locked volumes, the revolumization process stops at the first locked volume it finds.

Insert Manual Volume Breaks

Use this procedure to insert a volume. During volumization, the assembly is not locked. You must wait for volumization to complete before attempting to select any elements.
