2. Re: Renditions best practice. What's best in translating folio design to another platform?
PacificPublish Jul 15, 2014 5:10 PM (in response to Bob Levine)Thanks Bob, but that wasn't quite my question. What's the best practice for workflow to convert the folio I've built into another size. EG Converting the iPhone articles to iPad. I was going to use the Page Tool, but wondered whether anyone had a more efficient method.

PacificPublish Jul 16, 2014 12:52 AM (in response to PacificPublish)No worries, I worked it out. Save As the INDD document into the same folder under a different name, use Page tool to create the new dimension, create a new folio of the same name in the Folio Builder but different dimensions, and Add. Thanks anyway.

Bob Levine Jul 16, 2014 4:35 AM (in response to PacificPublish)I would have just changed the document set up if you were just going to
1024x768 for all pages, but the design for iPhone and iPad should certainly
be different. Just blowing it up is not going to create a very good
experience.

PacificPublish Jul 16, 2014 4:49 AM (in response to Bob Levine)Thanks Bob. I thought I might be able to do it with Alternate Layouts, but realised they must be all the same aspect ratio - which clearly iPhone and iPad are not. I had hoped to be able to sync any changes within the document. Guess I better just get it right the first time!

Neil Enns - Adobe Jul 16, 2014 6:28 AM (in response to PacificPublish)Alternate layouts don't need to be the same aspect ratio. In fact one of the powers of alternate layouts is you can use the liquid layout page settings on your original pages to define how the content will move when you generate an alternate layout with a different aspect ratio.

PacificPublish Jul 16, 2014 6:35 PM (in response to Neil Enns - Adobe)Thanks Neil, that's what I thought originally. Can you direct me to any solid reference/instruction on using Alternate Layouts for renditions? I've been searching for days.
