This functionality was modified in an update. For more information, see Generate a consolidated PDF for a data book (modified in an update)

You can combine all the PDFs of documents and files attached to a data book and its chapters into a single consolidated PDF.

Only the data book owner can generate a consolidated PDF. The data book owner is one or more user(s) selected from the Item owner(s) list for the data book or the user who created the data book if an owner was not selected.

SHARED Tip The consolidated PDF generation of a data book is faster if you generate each individual PDF first for every file attached to the documents or data book chapters. For more information on generating the PDFs for a file, see Generating PDFs.

How are documents attached to a data book organized?

When you generate the PDF of a data book, the documents and files attached to the data book chapters are organized according to the order arranged while managing the data book.

  1. Select the data book, and select Actions > Generate Merged Rendition.

  2. Select View Merged Rendition.

You can configure the bookmarks for a merged rendition of a data book. Based on the defined settings, the bookmarks are displayed in the PDF generated from the data book. For more information, see Configure bookmarks for the PDF generated from the data books.
