Synchronizing specifications
Before you synchronize the specifications in a book, first make sure that the style sheets,
colors, hyphenation and justification specifications, lists, and dashes and stripes in the
current master chapter are defined correctly. Then:
1
Make sure all the chapters in the book have a status of Available. If a chapter is unavailable,
its specifications will not be synchronized.
2
Select the chapters you want to synchronize. To select a range of chapters, click the first
chapter and press Shift while you click the last chapter in the range. To select
nonconsecutive chapters, press Command/Ctrl while you click the chapters.
3
Click the Synchronize Book button in the Book palette. The Synchronize Selected
Chapters dialog box displays.
4
Click the Style Sheets, Colors, H&Js, Lists, or Dashes & Stripes tab to choose from a list
of those specifications. The Available list displays all the appropriate specifications. Select
the specifications you want to synchronize and double-click them, or click the arrow to
move them to the Include column.
5
To synchronize all the specifications in the Synchronize Selected Chapters dialog box,
click the Synch All button.
6
Click OK. Each chapter in the book is opened, compared to the master chapter, modified
as necessary, and saved. When you synchronize chapters, they are modified as follows:
• Specifications with the same name are compared; chapter specifications are edited as
necessary to match specifications in the master chapter.
• Specifications in the master chapter that are missing from other chapters are added to
those chapters.
• Specifications in other chapters that are not defined in the master chapter remain
untouched.
If you make changes that affect the specifications in a book, you will need to synchronize
the chapters again.
You can use synchronization to make global changes to any of the specifications in a book.
For example, if you decide to change a spot color used throughout a book, change the
color's definition in the master chapter; then click the Synchronize Book button .
