DPS UI enhancements

Hide top navigation bar
When this DPS App Builder setting is selected, only the bottom navigation bar is displayed when a user taps an article. This enables publishers to
create a persistent navigation bar on all article pages for navigating within the folio.
Automated workflow API improvements (Enterprise only)
When using APIs for automated DPS publishing workflows, you can now publish and update folios and update article metadata (updating articles
is planned for a future release).
SiteCatalyst analytics improvements
SiteCatalyst includes enhancements such as reporting the playback duration of videos.
Generate fulfillment download reports
Publishers can now generate reports to view download data from the Adobe Distribution Service. If you sign in to the DPS Dashboard using an
Application account, you can choose the Fulfillment Report option to download a .csv file that includes billable download statistics from the Adobe
Distribution Service for that app. If you sign in using an Admin account, you can click a link in the Dashboard to obtain a report that shows your
fulfillment download balance.
iOS4 no longer supported
The v25 and later viewers no longer support iOS4—only iOS5 or later.
Release 24
When your customers are downloading any folio in a v24 app, they can leave the app, check email or
view a different folio, and then come back later to find the folio downloaded. Note that the download pauses after ten minutes. Only one folio can
be downloaded at a time.
You can select multiple articles in the Folio Builder panel and choose Update to update all the selected
articles. To select articles, Shift-click or Ctrl/Command-click the articles.
The new Sections feature will eventually allow your customers to download individual sections of a folio. For example, you can divide a
folio into News, Sports, Business, Style, and Money sections, and your customers could download only the articles in the Sports and Money
sections if they so choose. See Create Sections.
By default, all iPad viewer libraries include both a Grid View and a Cover View, which displays only
one folio at a time. With the v24 DPS App Builder, you can select an option to include only the Grid View or both the Grid View and Cover View on
iPads. (With Android viewers, you can already choose Grid View, Cover View, or both.)
When you create a folio, an Orientation setting is no longer selected by default. If you click OK without selecting an
Orientation setting, a red box appears around the option. This change should help avoid mistakenly creating a folio with an incorrect orientation
setting.
In addition, many error messages now include links that direct you to a tech note.
When a folio fails to publish properly due to a server error, you can click a Retry button to resume the
publishing process after the server issue is resolved.
The bandwidth of the Adobe Distribution Service has been increased, resulting in improved stability and
performance.
In addition, DPS servers are now in a separate cluster on acrobat.com, allowing folios to be uploaded and downloaded even if acrobat.com is
undergoing maintenance.
The “Restore Purchases” dialog box now appears only when users choose Restore Purchases from the library
options menu.
In DPS App Builder, you can cache folio information to improve performance for apps with
large libraries. Note that selecting this option can cause folio information to become out of date. For example, if you select this option and change
the cost of retail folios, your library will display misleading information. This option is currently available only for subscription apps.
