Publishing settings

Library configuration & administration

Publishing Settings includes the options for setting the file format used when publishing to website, and managing image files when books are published to XML. Publishing Settings are found in the Administrator under Settings > Publishing Settings.

Note: If the website variables have not yet been set in the Administrator a message displays. Click OK to continue.

Website Settings:

  • Output format: select the publishing format for the website files.

XML Settings:

  • Export embedded pictures as files: includes a copy of each embedded image file from the published book in the publishing folder with the XML file, XSD file, and the XSLT files.
  • Export linked pictures as files: includes a copy of each linked image file from the published book in the output folder with the XML file, XSD file, and the XSLT files. Using "linked images" allows you to use different images on your output tabs. For example, you may want images with different resolutions, or images using different file formats for print and online outputs. When the book is published to XML, a copy of each linked image is added to the output folder, prefixed with the first letter from its output tab, P_123.gif or W_123.jpg.
  • Include preview of file objects: creates a Preview folder inside the output folder with the XML file XSD file, and the XSLT files. A JPG preview of every image used by the book is included in that Preview folder.
