Substituting Objects in a Publishing Profile

You can define a list of object replacement rules for the profile. During publishing the profile substitutes the object in the book with the preferred object. Using the replacement rules you can influence the look and feel by substituting Media objects or Styles. The Select Object to Replace window includes an object search so you can locate objects based on type, containing specific text, or locate objects by using their description.

To Create an Object Replacement Rule:

1. Open the Publishing Profile and select the Theme tab.
2. Choose Add in the Object Replace group. The Select Object to Replace window opens.
3. Add the search criteria for the objects, then choose Search.
4. In the search results list select the object from the book you want to replace, then double-click or choose Select.

   

5. The object's reference is added to the Original field.
6. Select the object you want to use in the published output, then double-click or choose Select. The substitute object's reference is added to the Replacement field.

   

7. Choose OK to save the replacement rule and close the window. The rule is listed in the Theme tab.
