Linking an existing project to a Job Jackets file
When you link an existing project to a Job Jackets file, you remove the project’s current active Job Ticket and link the project to a new Job Ticket created from a Job Ticket template in another Job Jackets file. You might choose to do this if, for example, you want to link an existing project to a Job Jackets file where another layout artist has an active Job Ticket, and thus synchronize some or all of the Resources that the two of you are using. (For details, see ”Collaborating with shared Job Jackets.”)
To apply a Job Ticket to an existing project:
- Create or open the project.
- Choose File > Job Jackets > Link Project. The Link Project dialog box displays.
- If the Job Jackets file you want is not displayed, click Browse, navigate to the file, and then click Open.
- Select the target Job Ticket template in the list.
- Check or uncheck the Share Jacket check box, as follows:
- Click Attach. The project inherits the Job Ticket template’s project settings, and layouts are automatically created for any layout definitions in the Job Ticket template.
