Project Details > Properties

'Project Details' window > 'Properties' tab

Here we see the Properties tab of the Project Details window.

Project Options

  • Name: Edit the name of your project.
  • Version: You can add text to this field to be displayed in the Version column. Any version documents created will inherit this text.
  • Tags: These are search tags, and can be searched for via the Search tool at the top of the screen.
  • Description: Provide a description or additional information about the document, if desired.

NOTE: The text from the master document's 'Version' field will be placed in the 'Version' field of any version documents created from this master. This text will be displayed in the 'Version' column of the version document area of the 'Projects' tab.

Document Options

  • Units: You can choose whether the dimensions of your document will be specified in Points, Pixels, Millimeters or Inches.
  • Image Output Resolution: This is set to 300dpi by default, and defines the minimum dpi limit of rasterized images in the document. This is useful if image resizing is permitted via Content Rules, as a minimum effective dpi can be set to this document-level value.
  • Default Preview Quality: This option allows you to set the quality of the images that are rendered in the preview. High will render the images at full resolution, while Low will only render the proxy images contained in the INDD file. Choosing Low may speed up the preview rendering. IDML files do not contain proxy images. If a project was created from an IDML file, and Low is chosen here, the image frames will appear empty in the editor.

Project Details > Fonts

'Project Details' window > 'Fonts' tab

The Fonts tab contains a list of all the fonts used in the document.

If any of them cannot be found, they are marked as missing in the right-hand column.

In this example, the fonts are being used directly from the Document fonts folder that was uploaded as part of the InDesign Package.

NOTE: You must provide all fonts to be used within your one2edit™ workspace. These can be uploaded via the 'Settings > Font Packages' menu option.

Project Details > Preflight

'Project Details' window > 'Preflight' tab

The Preflight tab can be used to generate an InDesign preflight report for the document. The preflight profile to be used can be selected via the Preflight Profile drop-down menu.

Preflight profiles can be uploaded via Settings > InDesign Preflight Profiles.

What is an InDesign Preflight Profile?
A user can set up an InDesign preflight profile to check that all important criteria are in place for a document, e.g., overlapping text, missing fonts, image dpi, etc. For more details concerning preflight profile definition, please refer to the InDesign instruction manual.

Project Details > Export

'Project Details' window > 'Preflight' tab

The Export tab is used to set a specific low-res PDF Joboption for this document alone (i.e. to override the default set under Settings > Client Workspace Settings). The Page Range and Order options can also be set here.

High-res PDF exports are not affected by this setting.

'Project Details' window > 'History' tab

The History tab displays the detailed change history of the document. The changes are listed by date, time, username, and type of change.

'Project Details' window > 'Metadata' tab

The Metadata tab allows you to add XML metadata to a document. This metadata can then be seen and used via API calls, e.g., when integrating with another system.
