Adding a variable resource file in Publication Manager
The resource file in a publication is used by Content Manager to resolve variables included in your topics. You include variables in topics to customize data, for example, you may use a variable for a brand name or company logo that may change from publication to publication or when you preview . The data in the resource file replaces the variable when you publish.
About this task
The variable names that are used in topics are mapped to text strings or graphics in a resource file. The resource file is associated with a publication and used at publication time or when previewing, to dynamically replace variables in the topics with the mapped text string or graphic.
