Konica Minolta Darwin VDP Software - Manual (Page 102)

Working with pages
After adding variable elements to InDesign CS3 pages, you use the
Page Manager tab to plan the layout of your Darwin document.
In order to plan the layout of your VDP output and define the pages or
page rules that will be included in your VDP output, you first need to
add the InDesign CS3 pages to your Darwin job.
1. Add InDesign CS3 pages to your Darwin job by one of the following
ways:
● Dragging an InDesign CS3 page to the Page Manager area in
Darwin Pilot
● Importing an InDesign CS3 page to Darwin Pilot, by clicking the
Add InDesign File
Note: If you want to add an InDesign CS3 page that was already
associated with a different Darwin job, a message will prompt
you to create a copy of this page.
●
Opening an InDesign CS3 file, adding variable content to it, and
saving the file as a Darwin document
When you add InDesign CS3 files to the Darwin job, the job displays
each page of the InDesign CS3 file as a separate page on the Page
Library panel on the Page Manager tab. For example, if an InDesign
CS3 file contains four pages, Darwin adds four pages to the Page
Library panel.
2. Drag the pages or the page rules that you want to include in your
VDP output from the Page Library panel to the Pages to Print area.
You can change the order in which the pages of a job are printed by
dragging the pages up or down in the Pages to Print area. You can
also enlarge and reduce the size of the pages in this area, for review.
3. To delete a page:
● In the Page Library area—select the file that you want to delete
and click the Remove InDesign File button.
Note: In this area, you cannot delete individual pages, only an
entire file.
● In the Pages to Printarea—select the page that you want to
delete and press the DELETE key.
Next:
After defining the desired pages for your VDP output, you can go on to
the production stage.
