Editing the rendition properties

How renditions are generated is controlled by a set of properties for each document. You can modify these properties to meet your specific rendition requirements..

Note    Publisher supports hybrid document publishing and rendering when the source and destination systems are both Meridian Enterprise. It is supported only if no rendering is performed or if the AutoCAD rendering module is used. Hybrid parts are not rendered or published if the AutoVue rendering module is used.

To edit the properties of a document that control how it is rendered:

  1. Select the document for which you want to edit its rendition properties.
  2. Click the Rendition tab. The Rendition property page appears.
  3. Click Edit. The properties become editable.
  4. Click options or type values using the descriptions in the following table.
  5. Click OK to save your changes.
