About Publications – Pergamon Support Portal

Publications in Pergamon allow you to combine multiple Documents into a single, cohesive output, such as booklets, leaflets, or user manuals. This feature streamlines the process of creating, managing, and distributing complex documents, making it ideal for organizations that need to produce structured content.

How Publications work

Permission inheritance in Publications

Here is a quick overview of how permission inheritance works when creating publications in Pergamon:

1. Creating a Publication from the Publications Hub

Go to Publications Hub → Create new publication
A publication created this way has no access permissions set by default
It is therefore restricted to all users unless permissions are manually assigned

2. Creating a Publication during Questionnaire Document creation

When creating a document through the blueprint or questionnaire workflow, you can enable publication creation in the final step
In this case, the Publication inherits the same access permissions as the new document
By default, new documents created through this path grant Full Access to other workspace users

3. Creating a Publication from the Documents Hub

In the Documents Hub, locate the document → click the three dots → Create Publication
The publication created here inherits access permissions from the document it is based on
