In Pergamon, you can create a new Publication by using the Publications Hub, which serves as the central interface for managing all your Publications. This guide walks you through the process of creating a Publication and adding Documents to it.
Prerequisites
- Ensure you have the necessary permissions to create and manage Publications.
- Documents you want to add to the Publication must already exist in Pergamon.
Creating a Publication involves the following two actions:
- Creating a new Publication
- Adding Documents to the Publication.
Create new Publication
To create a new Publication:
- Log into Pergamon and click on Publications from the left navigation sidebar.
- In the Publications Hub, click the + button on the right to create a new Publication.
- In the Create Publication box, provide the following details:
- Publication Name: Enter a name for the Publication, following your organization’s naming conventions.
- Category: Select a client from the drop-down menu.
- Status: Choose a status (e.g., Draft, In Progress, Published).
- Type: Select the type of Publication (e.g., Booklet, Leaflet).
- Comments: (Optional) Add reference notes for your team.
- Click Save to create the Publication.
Note 1: A newly created Publication is in an empty state until Documents are added to it.
Note 2: If you select Leaflet as the Publication type, you must choose a PDF Layout that will be applied to all Documents in the Publication. However, if your Publication includes an internal document (e.g., a Project Log) as the first Document in the sequence, you can skip the PDF layout for this Document by checking the Skip layout for first Document checkbox.
This ensures that:
- The first Document retains its original layout.
- The remaining Documents in the Publication reflect the selected PDF layout.
Add Documents to Publication
You can add Documents to your newly created Publication
To add Documents to a new Publication:
- In the Publications Hub, locate and click on the newly created Publication from the list.
- Click Edit to enter edit mode, then navigate to the Documents tab.
- In the Documents section at the bottom of the screen:
- Select the Documents you want to add by checking the corresponding checkboxes.
- Click Save to confirm your selection.
Tip: Use the search and filter options to quickly locate specific Documents.
Your Publication is now ready for export.
