In TIMONE Plan, the word "Editorial" refers to the pages that compose a story, an editorial service. An editorial corresponds to what will become the InDesign file in the production environment. In TIMONE Plan you define for example that a story shall have a specific quantity of pages, a title, that it will go into a specific section, that it will go on specific pages within the issue, ecc..
If the system is used in integration with an editorial production system, in TIMONE Plan you can assign an InDesign layout template to this story and you can automatically create the InDesign file for this story. If you change the position of the story in the flat plan, the page numbering in the InDesign file is automatically changed by the system for the designers, etc.
The interaction between planning and production environments with reference to Editorials shall be treated more specifically in a proper section.
Let's now focus very simply on how to create an Editorial in TIMONE Plan.
To create a new editorial, it is necessary to follow the steps below:
1) Open the Issue and choose the tab “Editorials”
2) Click on the icon containing a green +;
3) Fill in the fields in the window showing up on the left side of the screen
Field | Description |
---|---|
Title* | the title of your editorial |
File | the file name (the name which is given to the InDesign file when created) is automatically filled in by TIMONE System based on rules that can be predefined in the administration module |
Quantity | the number of pages of the editorial (this quantity can be changed also later) |
Notes | additional notes about the editorial |
Section | the section you want the editorial to be associated with |
Dossier | the WoodWing Enterprise dossier the editorial shall be contained in |
Template | the layout template you want to use for creating the InDesign file in the editorial system (the same layout templates are available in both TIMONE Plan and editorial system |
Status | the workflow status of the editorial (the workflow part which needs planning and production to be synchronized will have identical workflow steps in both TIMONE Plan and editorial system). In TIMONE Plan you can have also additional workflow steps (for example "Only planned", when the editorial service is only planned but not yet in production). The status is automatically assigned to editorials based on the work in progress. |
*Required field
4) Once you have filled in all the information you need, confirm using the green tick on the upper left side of the panel.
5) The created editorial is now available within the Editorials list.
If you want that the new Editorial (Editorial1) becomes available in the production environment as an InDesign file, choose also the "Template" you want to use for creating the InDesign file and please consults Synchronizing from TIMONE Plan to the production system |
Another way to create an editorial is to duplicate an existing one. |
