Interactive Document Content Editing
There are two ways that you can edit documents which belong to Apogee jobs:
•External Editing: External or Non-Interactive document editing is performed outside Apogee, typically for major content changes in applications such as QuarkXpress or InDesign. The document is then re-submitted to the Apogee system, where a new revision of that document is created. In combination with Apogee revision handling, this is the safest way of editing documents.
•Interactive Document Content Editing: This type of editing is performed directly on the document from within Apogee. This is done by double- or context-clicking an Apogee result to open the document in Acrobat. Using the Apogee Check-Out/In plug-in for Acrobat or any other PDF Viewer/Editor application such as the Amfortis Editor, documents can be edited directly within the Apogee job. This saves time since the document does not have to be re-submitted. Note that Interactive Document Editing requires full user attention! Misuse may lead to unexpected results.
Interactive Document Content Editing is used to edit documents before they reach the Run List in the Production Plan. In this case, a new revision of the document is created in the Run List. This is typically designed for minor changes such as small text edits or typos. Since the Page Store is related to the Run List, you can also edit results that are ‘Run List ready’ (no page processing activity).
NOTE: The Check Out/Check In plug-in must be installed in order to perform interactive document editing. This is included in the Apogee Trap Spotter plug-in.
