Overview
When Hyper.Net converts a document, one or more renditions result. Each of these renditions is comprised of multiple components. For example, a long document may be converted to a Rich Hypertext rendition with an accompanying PDF rendition and then published back into MOSS. Examples of the content created for this example include:
| |
· |
A table of contents
|
| |
· |
One SharePoint document for each topic
|
| |
· |
Each image within each Rich Hypertext topic
|
| |
· |
One SharePoint document representing the PDF rendition
|
| |
· |
The PDF file itself
|
For the purpose of organizing all of this content in SharePoint to make it easy to use within WCMS applications, the following uniform approach is taken:
| |
· |
Each main topic and subtopic in a Rich Hypertext publication is represented by a Topic.
|
| |
· |
Any binary rendition created for a publication (e.g., PDF, Flat HTML, Flash, MP3, Source) is also represented by a Topic.
|
| |
· |
All Topics are stored at the same level and are represented uniformly by the same SharePoint design elements.
|
| |
· |
Any differences in type (for example HTML rendition, PDF rendition, Rich Hypertext topic) are noted in each Topic's metadata.
|
| |
· |
Any hierarchical structure that exists within a collection of topics is defined in the publication's table of contents. If a publication has no hierarchy (for example, a PDF rendition and a Flash rendition are created, or a Rich Hypertext rendition of a document having no structured defined by heading level styles), the table of contents contains a list of topics with no associated subtopics.
|
| |
· |
The table of contents is represented by an XML document.
|
| |
· |
If the document being converted is a Word or Word-compatible document, the table of contents XML document also contains an Index section that lists all of the index entries found within the document. The Index section can be used to generate a hyperlink-based index that links the user from index keywords to the topics containing those keywords.
|
| |
· |
All document and publication metadata are stored in SharePoint properties.
|
| |
· |
All Topics are represented by folders and documents in SharePoint (see The Topic folder).
