Publication in the Media Pool
In the template, the template designer can allow the finished document to be published directly in the Media Pool module. The document is always published as an InDesign file.
Through the Media Pool module, other uses can search for the document in the system and download it in its original format or following a conversion (for example, to PDF).

If you are publishing a document in the Media Pool module, you create it as an asset. To do so, you must enter the required meta data for the asset. If you click the button Step 5 - Publish in Module Media Pool in the customizing wizard, the following dialog box is displayed:
Edit the fields. For a detailed description of the meta data, see the user manual for the Media Pool module (see Additional Documentation).
In addition, note the following special features of meta data in Brand Template Builder:
Metadata |
Description |
---|---|
Validity and Hide if not valid |
If a validity date has been defined in the document properties, the Validity field is prefilled with this date and the Hide if not valid checkbox is activated. |
Suitable for Brand Template Builder |
To enable the use of the document published in the Media Pool as the basis for a template in Brand Template Builder again, activate the Suitable for Brand Template Builder checkbox. |
Print quality |
Activate the Print quality checkbox to confirm that the asset is available in high resolution and is suitable for printing. |
Save data of form without publishing |
If you activate the Save data of form without publishing checkbox, the data for the document is saved. However, the document is not published in the Media Pool. This procedure may be required, for instance, if you are editing the copy of a document that is already published in the Media Pool but do not want to publish the copy. |
Note
In this dialog box, you only prepare for the publication in the Media Pool module. The document is not published in the Media Pool module until you have finished the document in step 6 of the customizing wizard.
