Any document open in InDesign can be added to an open Cumulus catalog. Additionally, a PDF file may be generated from that document and also added to the catalog.
With Cumulus Enterprise only: If the InDesign document contains linked files from sources other than a Cumulus catalog, these files will be added to Cumulus automatically. The links to these files will be replaced with the corresponding Cumulus URIs.
To add an InDesign document to a catalog:
1. Click Add to Cumulus on the Records panel, OR Select Add Document to Catalog from the panel menu of any In InDesign Client panel.
The Add Document to Catalog dialog is displayed.
2. If more than one catalog is open in the InDesign Client window, select the catalog to which you want to add the document.
3. If necessary, select the Asset Handling Set to be used.
4. Optionally, activate the Create PDF and add to catalog option.
You may also want to activate the Show InDesign’s PDF export window option. The InDesign’s PDF export window allows to select or modify PDF export settings. For further information refer to the Adobe InDesign documentation.
The InDesign Client will remember your PDF related settings as defaults until you change them again.
5. Click OK. The document is added to the selected catalog. If the Create PDF and add to catalog option has been activated, a PDF file is generated and added to the catalog, too.
NOTE: You may be prompted to save your document in InDesign before it is added to the catalog.
