It’s pretty easy. In the Apps tab make a Windows app instead of an iOS app. Use whatever image you want for all of the image assets, you don’t even have to resize them (App Builder will resize them for you).
Some of the fields on the General tab can be a bit confusing, but since you aren’t submitting this to the store you can put in fake info. For publisher display name put in anything you want. For publisher ID use CN=testing. For main package identity name use something like com.yourcomanyname.yourappname.
Make sure you select the “Enable preview” checkbox!
Sandee, Neil is alluding to the fact that there are no viewers for DPS 2015 unless you create one yourself.
Without an Apple Developer account iOS is out of the question but you can build and install a Windows 8.1/10 app and use that since it doesn't require any certificates.
I suggest you follow our getting started guide at Get started with Digital Publishing Solution | Adobe Digital Publishing Solution tutorials. There's videos that walk you through everything, start to finish, including sample assets. When you get to the part where you have to build an app to preview the content build the Windows version instead of the iOS version. The steps are similar.
You'll need a trial account to complete the tutorial. You can sign up for the trial account at https://trial.publish.adobe.com/.
I think one easier workflow is use CC2014 and preview in Adobe Content Viewer. Once the Overlays is the same you can preview ACV and export to .article
Sandee - I'll second Felipe's comment. If you want to quickly iterate and test your InDesign based interactivity, your best bet at this point is to use Adobe Content Viewer either through the desktop preview tool or through your device plugged in via USB.
We do not have the exact equivalent of an Adobe Content Viewer for DPS 2015 yet. If you have developer certificates for Apple or Android you can create a DPS 2015 app with "Preview mode" enabled. The preview apps are great for showing you exactly how content will behave in your production app and where it will be published on the application's grid layout. The drawback is that you would need to re-upload your article each time you made a change that you are looking to preview.
I have a an Apple Developer account iOS. And I finish the setup on the DPS beta with my adobe id. I have the iPad plug in the computer, but I dont see the launch icon after I plug... I am missing a step. I plugged all the certificate number on the DBS beta too. It all must be ok... I just want to preview in the ipad or iphone to get the money from the highrack manage here at the company to start implement this at our studio.
wow! I doesnt go. I went to all steps until I reached Sign and install the iOS test app. I Installed and launched the DPS 2015 App Signing Tool, selected iOS, specify files and information, and signed the app. Nothing on Itunes I got the xcode add to member center and nothing.
It seems like I can see the launch icon to add the app on the iPad device or iTunes
So without Adobe Content Viewer, there's not an "easy" way to share what used to be called folios with other users, right? In DPS Classic, I could share a folio to my boss's Adobe ID and he could view it on his iPad. What's the replacement workflow? A beta app shared (how?)?
