Artwork Assembly Panel

This panel lets you search, and view POAs and the artwork elements associated with it. It also lists the artwork elements that have inline translation content. The listed artwork elements are sorted by sequence number, type, instance sequence, and language sequence.

Rich text formatting such as bold, italic, underline, subscript, superscript, and strikethrough in the content is displayed in this panel.

If you modify the content of a text frame, the border of the text frame changes to red color to indicate a content mismatch only when you refresh the POA, synchronize the POA, load another POA, or import a GS1 content file. Otherwise, if there is a content mismatch, the border color of the text frame does not change.
