Page Specific Parameters

You can also customize individual settings of the pages selected in the browser. These settings are located in the Page Manager below the list of pages.

Page Parameters
Wide This option allows you make a double-page spread on the basis of the
selected page. Please note, in that case the publication can get some
blank pages in order to maintain the integrity of the structure.
Content Scaling This option is useful for pages that were created from JPEG and PNG files. It allows changing the type of image scaling within the page. Two methods of scaling are available: fit the page without cropping and fit the page subject to a cutoff of those parts of images that exceed the border of the page
Smooth Content This option enables smoothing of the content in order to avoid loss of quality of JPEG and PNG pages during scaling. When the smoothing is enabled, pages look better, but require more processor resources
Background Color This option determines the background color that is viewable during the loading of the page's picture. Also, this color is viewable through the transparent areas of the SWF pages
Page URL Caption This option determines the text name of this page to be displayed in the address field of the web browser. By default, this is just the number of the page. This name will be included in the direct links to the pages of your publication
Page Number Caption This option determines the text name of your page to be displayed in the numeration block of the upper panel of the publication's window. By default, it is just the number of the page
