structure and PDF publishing
Posted: Mon Apr 10, 2023 2:55 pm
Currently, my team publishes PDFs separately from HTML files (for the html, we use a destination file) for our internal server. We SFTP the pdfs using WINSCP, a whole separate process. We would prefer to simplify our process, and could use some ideas on how to do so.
Our PDFs link off of their HTML topic/page. Which means they are all over in the place in our directory (eg : server/toplevel/internal/project/pdf/projectversion/docfolder/doc.pdf).
I'm kinda gathering that the best practice is to publish them all to one location and then link there. ? something more like: server/toplevel/internal/pdf. ?
I guess that wouldn't affect target and TOC setup, just a presumably new destination file to publish too; that is, we would copy our html destination file and update it for sftp, and choose the single PDF folder as the location to publish to).
Am I thinking about this correctly? Is there a better/simpler way? Best practice I should read?
Thanks folks.
