Booklet App

A booklet is a set of pages that are connected in a hierarchical sequence. For example, if you wanted to publish a manual with sub-sections you may want to use a booklet instead of a set of pages. 

Booklets also offer several unique features:

  • Printer-friendly pages (including the ability to print an entire booklet)
  • Configurable table of contents. The table of contents for booklets is automatically created as you add child pages and can be placed in the sidebar or the main content area.
  • Asynchronous page loading (table of contents links will load content onto the screen without having to refresh the page.)

In most cases, Basic Pages are the best ways to build out your site sections because they offer the greatest flexibility in your page layouts. With pages, you can place widget in any area of the page (including the main content area). All Booklet pages however, are limited to the same layout and widgets.
