Article Name
Article Format
JPEG Quality
Smooth Scrolling
Note:
Specify the article name. The article name does not appear in the viewer. The Article Name is used for creating links
between articles, so use a name such as “City_Guide” instead of a filename such as “city_guide_h.indd.” The maximum number of
characters for Article Name is 60.
Specify an image format setting for the article. For example, you can choose PDF for an article to allow pinching and
zooming. See
If Automatic or JPG is selected for Image Format, specify the JPEG Quality. Increased quality increases the file size.
Set the Smooth Scrolling for the article, not for just the layout you’re adding. For example, if you’re adding only the
vertical layout in a dual-orientation folio, choose Both Directions if both layouts are smooth scrolling. Select Horizontal Only or Vertical Only if
it’s a single-orientation article or if only one layout is smooth scrolling.
When you select a Smooth Scrolling option in InDesign CS6, you can specify alternate layouts. If your smooth scrolling document has
only one layout, choose it for the appropriate layout, and choose None for the other layout that you will add later.
Add a layout to an article
InDesign CS6 and InDesign CC documents can include multiple layouts. When you add an article, you can specify both horizontal and vertical
layouts. If you’re using InDesign CS5 or CS5.5, or if you created only one layout in InDesign CS6 or CC, you can add a layout from a different
document. If the article appears in a dual-orientation folio, the article requires a second layout.
1. Open the InDesign document that is designed in a different layout orientation from the existing article layout.
2. In the Folio Builder panel, double-click the article to which you want to add the second layout.
3. In the Articles view of the Folio Builder panel, click Add Layout. If the document includes multiple layouts, specify the appropriate layout.
Import InDesign articles
If you use the appropriate structure and filenaming conventions, you can import either a single article or a set of articles. Currently, if your InDesign
CS6 or CC document includes multiple layouts, you cannot import it as an article. Use the Add Article option instead.
When you import articles, the aspect ratio of the articles must match the aspect ratio of the folio unless you select a Smooth Scrolling option.
1. Create one or more folders containing InDesign documents. See Structuring folders for imported articles.
2. In the Folio Builder panel, open the folio in which the article or articles will appear.
3. In the Articles view of the Folio Builder panel, choose Import Article from the panel menu.
