Media
Variables are container for content, which is used again and
again.
Media
Variables define the table structure.
Furthermore
they are used for special fields (such under Table -> Alternative table header).
If
translations are required, the content has to be stored in Media
Variables.
Media
Variables are stored in the .pmt file.
Note
You can edit
Media Variables both in PARTproject and in
the Media editor.
Editing in
the Media editor is more comfortable. In
PARTproject there are enhanced options
available. Variables created in the Media editor are related to the Test project, determined in the PARTtemplateDesigner and have to be
inherited to all needed directory levels (mostly catalog level) finally.
This step has to be performed in PARTproject. Furthermore translations are
maintained in PARTproject.
Before you
can create Media Variables in PARTtemplateDesigner or Media editor, at least one time a Media
Variable has to be created in PARTproject.
