Switching your Invent template to use the Form Builder | FB_017

In this short tutorial, we'll see how you can switch templates you've started creating in Infigo Invent for InDesign, so they are instead using the Infigo Form Builder.

This is incredibly useful if you wish to utilise artwork which has already been created as an InDesign file, rather than recreating the layout in MegaEdit. In addition, any resources you have specified in your Invent file (such as fonts or cliparts) will be brought over with the MEX import and will remain once you switch the template to utilise the Infigo Form Builder.

Click on Add new

We will begin by creating a new product and importing a MEX file created by Infigo Invent.

Click on Create

Once the new product has been created, click on MegaEdit config

Remove the Custom Load Steps

When you import a MEX file, custom load steps will be automatically input to ensure the smooth loading of the product. If the Invent script is no longer required, remove these load steps.

Click on Save and Continue Edit

Click on Scripts

Deactivate the InDesign script and activate the Form Builder Refactor script (this name is subject to change upon official release)

Click on Save changes

Launch the MegaEdit product

The Infigo Form Builder's Custom Tab will now be available for you to use to begin creating your template
