The Multi-Variant Publishing plugin allows you to batch publish a book to any output, using any set of variants and variables. If you publish the book to PDF ProCSS, you can also merge the individual publications into a single PDF. This plugin is ideal if you frequently need to publish multiple variants of the same book, or if you want to create PDFs that have multiple languages included (for example, a user guide with instructions in different languages). Authors will save time by publishing multiple variants of the same book simultaneously, and merge multiple PDFs quickly and easily without relying on external applications or solutions.
