Specifying a cover sheet

As shown in the example below, to choose a new cover sheet, specify the PDF source that contains the single PDF from that the cover sheet will be taken from, and the package files. In this case, the cover sheet consists of the pages from single1, the package files are from pkg2, pkg3, and any document-level file attachments from single1 become package files. Page-level file attachments remain for every page included in the cover sheet. In this case, no page-level file attachments will be included from pkg2 and pkg3; only those that existed in single1 will remain. The package specification is defined by merging the package specification from pkg3 into pkg2.

Example: Choosing a new cover sheet

<PDF result="newPackage">

	<PDF source="single1"/>

	<PackageFiles>

		<PDF source="pkg2"/>

		<PDF source="pkg3"/>

	</PackageFiles>

</PDF>

As shown in the example below, to add pages to an existing cover sheet, specify the additional source documents. In the following example, pages from prepend-pages and append-pages are added to the cover sheet contained in pkg1.

Example: Adding pages to a cover sheet

<PDF result="resultDoc">

	<PDF source="prepend-pages"/>

	<PDF source="pkg1" baseDocument="true"/>

	<PDF source="append-pages"/>

</PDF>

As shown in the example below, to remove pages from an existing cover sheet, specify the pages to be included in the source document. In the following example, pages 2-4 are removed from the cover sheet.

Example: Removing pages from a cover sheet

<PDF result="resultDoc">

	<PDF source="pkg1" pages="1,5-last"/>

</PDF>

As shown in the example below, if no cover sheet is specified, the_AdobeCoverSheet is used as the default.

Example: Use a default cover sheet

<PDF result="resultDoc">

	<PackageFiles>

		<PDF source="pkg1"/>

		<PDF source="pkg2"/>

	</PackageFiles>

</PDF>

As shown in the example below, the AdobeCoverSheet is provided in 15 languages and selected by specifying a locale. For other languages, a PDF document may be specified as the cover sheet that was created using the desired language, however it will not be selectable by locale.

Those are the only localized versions you can choose. For your own cover sheet, provide a PDF source because it is a PDF document; it is not selected by a locale. It can be in any language if you design it as such. You can replace the cover sheet in an existing package, which lets you specify a target locale. Notice that if you are using a default package specification, the same locales that are supported for the Adobe cover sheet are available to select localized display strings for the default package specification. In the following example, the German version of the Adobe cover sheet is specified.

Example: Localizing a cover sheet

<PDF result="resultPkg">

	<TargetLocale locale="de_DE"/>

	<PDF source="_AdobeCoverSheet"/>

	<PackageFiles>

		<PDF source="pkg"/>

	</PackageFiles>

</PDF>

Note: If the locale is not specified in the DDX, the User Management-configured locale will be used, and "en_US" will be used if it is not configured either.
