Instructions for International. For SINGLE cards: 1. After importing SGML, click the BookQS element in the "Structure View" window. 2. Select QuickStart in the "Elements" window

and click Wrap. 3. Right-click the BookQS element in the "Structure View" to bring up menu, and select Unwrap. 4. Highlight the Front element in the "Structure View" and delete

it. 5. Right-click the nested QuickStart element in the "Structure View" to bring up menu, and select Unwrap. 6. You can continue with print prep and creating PostScript and PDF,

even though the file is not completely valid because the ID on the QuickStart element is missing. That’s okay—it will not affect the appearance of the document, so PostScript and

PDF will be correct. For cards in a booklet: To remove part number from f irst page, use the master page "First."

To begin a QuickStart (English): Click in the box under the word Novell. Insert QuickStart and Title elements. 2. Type the product name. 3. Insert the HeadQS element and type

the title of your card. 4. Put in your product version: Click Special > Variable > select the variable named Version > Edit Definition > enter the version number > click Done > Done.

It will appear as background text replacing Version X.X.

For a single (stand-alone) card: Keep this master page, named “QS-Single.“ It shows the part number on the bottom right, since single cards don’t have front matter.

For a card that’s part of a booklet: Use Special > Master Page Usage to change to using “First” master page on the first page of the card. It doesn’t show the part number, since

part number will be noted in the front of the booklet.
