Google Play developer site to determine the price of the retail folio download.

Any folio published as Retail does not appear in the Adobe Content Viewer. Preview retail folios using the custom development app you
create.

For retail folios, do not set the status to Free and set it to Retail later. Doing so can prevent the folio from being available in the

custom viewer. Unpublish and re-publish such folios as Public and Retail.

4. Specify the Product ID.

For best results, use the com.publisher.publication.issue format (such as com.adobepress.inspire.july2013) to specify the Product ID.
For best results, avoid uppercase letters in your Product ID. Uppercase letters may not work with Amazon in-app purchases.

For retail content, make sure that you use the same Product ID in the Publish Folio dialog box that you create when setting up the in-app
purchase.

Use different Product IDs for each separate folio in your app. However, if you are creating folio renditions, use the same Product ID

for all renditions in the set.

5. Click Publish.

The folio is not published if it includes articles with conflicting orientations or aspect ratios. If the folio is published, the Publish button is
replaced by an Update button, and the Remove button is active.

When you publish or update a folio, the job is sent to the queue, allowing you to continue working in the Organizer and publish or update additional
folios. Choose View > Publish Requests to see the queue status. If a job fails, try again. You might need to Unpublish and choose Publish again.
See the

DPS Status page

for information about server outages that might affect publishing.

Unprotected articles are uploaded to a web server for viewing on the desktop.

If your custom viewer has push notifications enabled, click the Notify button to trigger a push notification. See Push notifications.

Update published folios

After you publish a folio, use the Update button in the Folio Producer Organizer to update the published folio. When the Adobe Content Viewer
detects that a downloaded folio has been updated, it prompts users to download the updated folio. Make sure that the Publication Name, Folio
Number, Product ID, and Size values remain unchanged. If you need to change any of these values, unpublish and re-publish the folio instead of
updating it.

1. Make the necessary changes to the folio and articles.

If you edit the source documents of an article, use the Update command in the Folio Builder panel.

2. Navigate to the Folio Producer Organizer.

3. Make sure that the Publication Name and Folio Number settings of the folio are identical to those of the existing folio.

If either of these settings are different, the new folio is treated as a separate issue.

4. Select the folio and choose Update.

5. Specify the appropriate status settings and Product ID.

Do not change the Product ID. If you need to use a different Product ID, use the Unpublish option, and then publish the folio again.

If your folio is a retail version, make sure that your Product ID matches the Product ID specified during the In App Purchase process for iPad
apps or related process for Android and Amazon apps. If you specify a different Product ID, the folio fails to appear in your custom viewer
app.

If Update Content is selected, the folio content and metadata is updated. If you deselect this option, only the status changes when you click
