Book Web properties

Author-it Objects

The Web tab on the Properties window contains properties that define how the Book object will be published on HTML pages. Each of these properties is described below.

Title

Defines the title of the book in the HTML pages. This information is placed into the HTML page as the <TITLE> tag.

Super title.

Defines a "super title" for the book in the HTML pages. This information is placed into the HTML page as metadata.

Version

Defines a version for the book in the HTML pages. This information is placed into the HTML page as metadata.

Note: This is not the same as object version. This version is simply text for you and your readers' benefit. It is not used in any way to identify the Book object, nor is it linked to the object version in any way.

By line

Defines an author's byline for the book in the HTML pages. This information is placed into the HTML page as metadata.

Base URL

Used to create a site map file for search engines. The file is used to inform search engines that you have pages available, and can be submitted to Google or Yahoo.

The site map file is created when you add your Web address as the Base URL in the book's Web tab. You can add the URL to the book or the book template. When you publish the book, the file is created and added to your publishing folder.

Base font size

Defines the base font size for the HTML pages. All other relative font sizes will be relative to this base size.

Frameset template

Specifies the HTML file to be used as the frameset when using an HTML Help or Plain HTML-based Table of Contents object and Index object. Sample frameset files can be found in the Templates folders.

Specify any additional files required

Drop-down list of additional files required to support the HTML or HTML Help, such as any required files that are unknown to Author-it. For example, you may have a graphic specified in the Frameset template, or you may require a supporting Java applet. Author-it copies all files specified to the publishing folder for this book when publishing any HTML based output.
