We know that online catalogues are great, but sometimes you just need to grab a print-out of titles for quick reference or to have at hand when your computer or internet may not be available. The new CataList customizable PDFs will allow you to export printable versions of your titles or catalogues displaying just the information you want to include, in the format you want, with the most up-to-date data available. Create and save your own templates, or set up company-wide templates that everyone in your account can access.

Once you or your account manager(s) have created at least one template, you'll have the ability to manage them going forward. You can access the Manage PDF Templates page from the PDF export button on any title or catalogue, or from My Page. Here you'll be able to see all the templates you have access to, view the set-up details of any template, and edit any of your own templates. While you can't edit shared templates that you did not create, you can generate a copy in your list using the Copy button, which can then be renamed and further edited for content as needed. If you are an Account Manager or Catalogue Editor, you'll also be able to share any template to everyone in your account by simply by selecting the checkbox in the Shared column. Old templates that you no longer need can be deleted. |

Account Managers and Catalogue Editors may also set some new account-level preferences for catalogues created by users in their account. This includes being able to customize the header and footer data elements for your company's catalogues, and making a standard set of end pages available for your account users to easily add to catalogues with just one click. Account level preferences are set on the Manage Templates page. Click the Customize Header/ Footer button to view or edit the current data elements. By default, the system assigns the catalogue name and imprint logo into the header space for PDF exported pages, and company name and page number into the footer space. You may change the selections for each part of the header or footer by simply selecting a different option from the lists for any of these locations. You can also select a custom text option for the footer - you could use this feature to add a general order email contact or phone number, for example! Your header and footer choices will always be used in the PDF exports of catalogues created by the users in your account, regardless of who is pulling the PDF. |

And lastly, we've also tidied up the top of your My Page display to give you access to all of your tools (including the new PDF templates!) without compromising access to your catalogue lists.
