Questions Re: SAVE PROJECT AS

Submitted by ixnay on Tue, 2009-12-29 06:55

Hello, I have a few questions regarding the 'save as' function in OBI. I am recording a text book. I am recording it a few chapters at a time and saving it. For example, chapters 1-4 is one DTB. However, when creating chapters 5-8, I'd like to just add to the previous book, making it all on one disc. I am doing this because of deadlines. So I open "book a, chapters 1-4" and then save as "book a, chapters 1-8". This all seems fine, however when I open "book a, chapters 1-8", it's name in the title bar is still "book a, chapters 1-4", just it's location has changed to "... 1-8". Am I doing something wrong here?

Hello ixnay, The procedure

Hello ixnay, The procedure that you have explained here is perfectly alright. No issues with that. When you do Save project as, then it just creates a copy of the project on the machine and does not change the title of the book. To change the title of the book you need to change it explicitly in metadata. For that the procedure would be to goto Metadata view by pressing Control Alt M. In that goto dc:Title field where the original name of your digital book, when you started creating the book, is written. Change it to desired name. In your case "book a, chapters 1-8". This will change the name of your book to new one. Thanks, Regards, Chhavi

Thank you so much!
