To reduce manual work, a default compilation layout can be set up and used on any/all projects.
To set the default layout for compilations, navigate to System Menu > Admin > Compil. & Pkg Presets.
To add a new compilation or package preset, click the plus button above the grid. Pre-existing presets can also be adjusted by clicking the pencil icon under "Tools."
Modifications made to a pre-existing preset (at the admin level) will be applied to any compilations/packages created on future projects using the preset. To adjust the presets for existing projects, see instructions below.
Whether creating a new preset or updating a pre-existing preset, configure the options in each section as needed:
- Compilation Info
- Compilation Sub-Packages
- CD Copy
- Pagination
- Table of Contents and Bookmarks Sections Options
- Compilation Structure Options
- Templates
For an overview of the available options in each section, see this article: Overview of Compilation Options
Edit Presets on Existing Projects
Modifications can be made to the compilation/package presets directly on a project, and changes will only apply to the one project. To make changes, navigate to Project Menu > Set Up > Compil. & Pkg Presets.
When the preset is updated, the system will ask whether or not to overwrite the master preset (at admin) with the changes. If the changes are not applied to the master preset, a notice will appear identifying that the project preset is "out-of-sync" with the the master preset.
