Community Advisor

Hi

   I am new to CQ 5.6. Previously I was working with 5.4 . I could understand that the feature for manuscripts is a new additional feature added in AEM. I am really unaware of its functinality. If anyone can guide me with some tutorial about how to work with manuscripts in CQ it would have been very helpful. I have read http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/5-6/media-publisher/mp-articles.html#Creating and Assigning Manuscripts this and was able to create a manuscript. But I dont understand How to use it? Where to use it? What's it's exact functionality?

     How the manuscripts are included in the page? Exactly for what purpose do we use them? If anybdy could guide me in this, it would have been very helpful

 

Thanks

Hi Veena,

Thanks for your question.

Manuscripts are used to create digital publications. There are some Media Publisher (also known as Experience Manager add-on designed for creating media- and publishing-related content) which provides tools for manuscript management and copy editing and integration with Adobe Digital Publishing Suite (DPS).

The Media Publisher provides various capabilities to people for creating a digital publication. The tasks include:

  • The editor creates manuscript requests and assigns them to contributors. 
  • The editor creates a folio.
  • The contributor creates the content.
  • Optionally, the layout team can add the manuscript content to an article.
  • The Editor adds an article summary and link onto the main Media page. 
  • The Publisher uploads the issue to Adobe Digital Publishing Suite.

Hope this solves your query. Please mark it solved if your query is resolved.
