| Tabs |
| SoftProof has tabs so that you can view multiple documents at the same time, these are located at the top of the SoftProof window. |

Step 1: |
|
 |
 |
| - From the RIP Monitor we can see the complete list of sections from the publication. - By utilising Blackmagic's search engine you are able to define a complete section, in this case we are using "Cov Enduro#3". So by typing "C" in the search field, only files beginning in "C" will appear. - Once the desired section has been selected, click "Submit". |

 |
 |
| - Once the covers have been processed, right click and select modify. - Re-assign page numbers accordingly. So change cover 3 to: 99, and cover 4 to: 100(back page). Now Re-Render the modified pages. - Continue to process second PDF containing the remaining pages (3-98), but remember to submit first page at page: 3. - Make sure you use the same publication name specified as the covers. This will ensure that all pages are linked under the same publication. |
|
 |
|
| - Once finished proccessing right click on the page 1 and select "Flipbook". |
|
Step 3: |
|
 |
|
| - Whilst in Flipbook mode you are able to view the virtual publication in page order. |
|
