Managing Project Documents Not Compatible with the PDF Viewer

In this lesson, we’ll demonstrate how to manage project-level documents in the web application that are not compatible with the PDF Viewer. You’ll learn how to upload and manage a document translation that is viewable in the PDF Viewer, and explore its relationship to its parent document.  

 

Before getting started:

You must be invited to Upchain and have at least a Participant license to perform the tasks demonstrated in this lesson. You will also need to be added to a project team to be able to manage documentation within that project.

Managing documents not compatible with the PDF Viewer

In this video, we will:

  • Discuss what is different about documents that are not compatible with the PDF Viewer.
  • Upload a translation that is compatible with the PDF Viewer to a document.
  • Explore the relationship between a document and its translation.

Any referenced datasets can be downloaded from "Module downloads" in the module overview.

Key takeaways

  1. Uploading a translation of a document means the document can be indirectly viewed in the PDF Viewer.
  2. Translations are linked to a specific document version and are lost when the document is versioned up.
  3. Publishing a document locks the translation from further modifications as well.
