Creating a MegaEdit product with Invent template
In this tutorial, we will learn how to utilise a template created using the Invent plugin for Adobe InDesign.
We will export the template from InDesign and add it to Infigo via a MegaEdit product type.

1. Navigate to the Export tab of the Infigo Invent tab in Adobe InDesign
In our basic example, we have not set up any resources, variables, properties or otherwise. These will all be covered in later tutorials.
Here, we are simply exporting an Invent file that we can utilise within Infigo.
2. Click Set Export File and define a name and location for the export
3. Click Start Validation
This will check the configuration of your Invent template prior to export.
If any problems are found, the export will fail and warning messages displayed.
