Previewing data modules in LiveContent
Contenta S1000D LiveContent Preview lets you see how a single data module looks before it is published to LiveContent S1000D.
Before you begin
- If you do not have Internet access, you must configure LiveContent Preview to resolve entities locally. See Configuring the Upload tool and other S1000D tools to use local entities.
- If you are using custom LiveContent styles, they must be copied to the correct directory on the Contenta Web Server. See the Configuring LiveContent Preview to use custom styles topic in the SDL Contenta S1000D Installation and Upgrade Guide.
Procedure
- In Contenta S1000D, navigate to the data module that you want to preview.
- Click Tools, and then click S1000D LiveContent Preview.
Results
- Task: tasks
- Ref Mat: reference materials
- Mat Req: material requirements
- Supt Eq: supplemental equipment
- Illustration: illustrations and multimedia
What to do next
If the S1000D Issue 3.0 or later data module content has applicability conditions specified, you can specify filtering criteria under Current Applicability Shown to show how the filtered content would be rendered in the IETM.
If the data module has illustrations and multimedia, you can browse that content by expanding the Illustrations section near the top of S1000D LiveContent Preview.
