Add tabs

Insert a tab before each bookmarked page of selected level or before a chapter start page.

To insert tabs at PDF bookmark locations, the imported job must be an Acrobat PDF with bookmarks already specified in the document. To insert tabs at chapter starts, add the chapter starts in Fiery JobMaster. You must have an activated Fiery JobMaster license.
  1. Import a PDF job into the Held queue of Command WorkStation.
  2. From the Held queue, select a job and do any one of the following:
    1. From the Actions menu, select JobMaster.
    2. Right-click and select JobMaster.
  3. From the View menu, select Show Bookmarks. The PDF bookmarks are shown with a red ribbon.
  4. To add chapter starts to the PDF, select a page and choose Chapter Start from the Actions menu. Chapter starts are shown with a blue ribbon. If a page is both a bookmark and a chapter start, it is shown with a blue and red ribbon.
  5. From the Actions menu, go to Chapter and Bookmark Actions and select one (or more) of the following:
    Option Description
    Convert Bookmarks to Tabs All bookmarked pages of a selected level, or all chapter start pages are converted to tabs. The Edit Tab window will automatically open; the tab text fields will be automatically populated with each bookmark's title. (Enabled only if the imported PDF has bookmarks or if chapter starts are set.)
    Insert Tab A tab will be inserted before each bookmarked page of a selected level, or before a chapter start page. The Edit Tab window will automatically open; the tab text fields will be automatically populated with each bookmark's title. (Enabled only if the imported PDF has bookmarks or if chapter starts are set.)
    Insert Text A bookmark title will be inserted into all pages of a selected bookmark level. The Numbering and Stamps window will automatically open, and the tab text fields will be automatically populated with each bookmark's title. (Enabled only if the imported PDF has bookmarks and is not available for chapter start pages.)
    Note:
    • Fiery JobMaster supports up to six levels of PDF Bookmarks.
    • If two or more bookmarks of the same level appear on a page, only the first bookmark is used.
    • If there are two or more levels of bookmarks on a page, only the top-level bookmark is honored. For example, if there are bookmarks of level 1 and level 2 on a page and you select a level 2 bookmark, the Chapter and Bookmark Actions feature will ignore this page.
    • Longer bookmark titles that cannot fit in the tab ear text field appear to be cut off from both ends.
    • Multi-bank tab functionality is not supported. If multiple tab sets are supported on your Fiery server, tabs are always inserted in the first set.
    • All tabs inserted using Chapter and Bookmark Actions will have the same tab settings and tab media preset.
    • Even if tabs are inserted using Chapter and Bookmark Actions, you can use the Insert Tab function to insert tabs.

    When tabs have been added to a document, you can use the Filter Tabs icon in the Page View tool bar to display only those pages with tabs.
