and Liquid Page Rules features, you can create layouts for different orientations and target devices within the same document. Flexible Column
Widths, Auto Size Text Frames, and Split Layout View also help with dynamic layouts. In addition, Insert HTML lets you quickly create an Web
Overlay by copying code, and packaging an InDesign document now includes overlay assets. See Create alternate layouts for DPS (InDesign
CS6).
DPS now supports the iPhone 3GS, 4, and 4S (the iPhone 3G is not supported). When you use the Viewer Builder, you can
create a custom viewer that works for the iPhone, the iPad, or both. When you create an app for both the iPad and iPhone, your customers are
entitled to purchased folios on any supported iOS device. The iPhone viewer includes a new settings page, enhanced browse mode, and welcome
screen that publishers can control.
Social sharing, bookmarks, and auto archiving are not yet supported for the iPhone. At this time, you cannot create a single-issue viewer app for
the iPhone. See Creating content for the iPhone.
If you enable social sharing in your app, representations of folio articles are uploaded to a web server for viewing
in desktop browsers. Use the Protected setting in the Folio Producer Editor to determine which articles are available for desktop viewing. Use the
Account Administration tool to limit the number of viewable unprotected articles and to set up a paywall. See Using social media.
Social sharing is now available through Facebook, Twitter, email, and copy/paste. If you enable social sharing in
your app, a customer can browse to an article and share it via Twitter, for example. If the article is protected, the link in the tweet points to the
publication URL. If the article is unprotected, a person who clicks the link in a supported desktop browser sees the folio in the web viewer. And a
person who clicks the link on an iPad can download the app, download or buy the folio, or view the article, depending on what is already
downloaded. See Using social media.
The Hide From TOC article settings lets you hide an article from the TOC without having to mark it as an advertisement.
See Change article properties.
When you use the Folio Producer Organizer to publish or update an article, the job is added to the publishing queue,
and you can continue to use the Organizer and add other folios to the queue. You can check the status of the queue by choosing View > Publish
Requests in the Organizer. See Publish folios to the Distribution Service.
Professional and Enterprise customers can now see a download counter in the DPS Dashboard. The download
counter appears only for accounts that have been audited for accuracy.
If you use the Desktop Viewer to preview a 2048x1536 folio, you can press Command+1 to view the actual size
or press Command+0 to fit in window. You can also zoom in or out. See Use the Desktop Viewer to preview content.
When you use the Viewer Builder to create a custom Adobe Content Viewer for the iPad, the Preview on Device
feature no longer requires the Phone Disk utility. See Use Preview on Device.
In the Folio Builder panel, the folio size appears below the folio name, making it easier to identify renditions. The Viewer Builder
design makes it easy for you to check that the right icons are used for the various iPhone and iPad models. The Folio Producer Organizer and the
Folio Producer Editor windows have also been redesigned.
The Optional URL Scheme setting in the Viewer Builder is now available for all iOS viewer app types, not just subscription
apps. The URL Scheme lets you link to a viewer app from another app or from mobile Safari.
If you’re an Enterprise publisher, you can specify the orientation of the HTML pages that appear
when users tap the custom nav bar icons. See Navigation Toolbar (Enterprise only).
The Viewer Builder now builds apps much faster, usually in a matter of seconds.
If your Smooth Scrolling article is no longer than two page lengths, you can use the PDF image
format. If the article is longer than two pages, JPG or PNG is used for the Smooth Scrolling article.
Enterprise publishers can enable hot zones that appear on the left and right sides of every article. Tapping an invisible
hot zone navigates to the next or previous article. See Navigation Toolbar (Enterprise only).
