Follow the steps below to submit your Yearbook
1. As each page is completed it should be marked as “Ready for Approval” by the designer. To mark a page as “Ready for Approval”, click on the “Pages” drop down menu in the secondary tool bar and click on the green check mark.
2. Each page should then be reviewed and approved by the Admin. To mark a page as “Approved”, click on the “Pages” drop down menu in the secondary tool bar and click on the blue star to “Approve” the page. NOTE: Only the Administrator can Approve a Page.
Both of these steps can be done on each page individually, or on multiple pages through the “Pages” drop down menu. To mark multiple pages as either “Ready for Approval” or “Approved”, click on the first page you want to approve, then hold down the “Shift” key on your keyboard and click on last page you want to approve. This will highlight all of the pages in between and allow you to approve them all at once.
NOTE: Be sure to check all of the warning messages on each page before submitting. These can be seen on your Ladder View.
Once all of the pages are approved, the Admin completes the following:
3. Click on the Submit Icon on the top level tool bar.
4. Click on the blue “Submit Pages” button.
5. Complete the Submission Form (be sure to confirm the number of books and pages, and indicate if you want the Autograph Supplement pages or any other options.)Â NOTE: Your book is not submitted into production until this form is complete.
This is a multi-step process. If you are both designer and administrator of the pages, you still have to go through this process. Each step only takes a few seconds.
If you are also submitting your cover while you are submitting your pages, you will follow similar steps, all starting with the Cover Icon. The cover must also be marked as “ready for approval”, then “approved”, then submitted. There will be a separate production form for the cover. Make sure you complete both forms.
If you have any questions, please contact our Technical Support Department at 1-800-887-0414.
You will want to develop a page ladder that shows what is to go onto every page of your yearbook. The ladder will help determine how many pages to allocated to each specific activity (portraits, sports, organizations, academics, advertisements, student life, etc.). The ladder will also help you organize the sequencing of sections to give a nice flow to your yearbook. Your ladder can also be used as a checklist during the year to help track progress.
To get started, determine the approximate number of pages you will need in the book. Base this information on the number of students and staff members, number of grades, extracurricular activities and other activities you might want included in the book. Remember to work in increments of 4 pages unless you are ordering a Smyth sewn book where you’ll work in increments of 16 pages.
Determining what will be on every page of your yearbook can be challenging at first. Use the desk-size ladder worksheet to brainstorm what you think should be included and in what order. Share this with other relevant faculty and students to ensure every event and group has appropriate coverage. Once you have a good idea, put your pagination onto the large wall ladder to track progress.
Keep in mind, what you can include is often determined by when you want your yearbook to arrive. If you want to receive your yearbook before graduation, choose Spring Delivery. This will require your book to be completed and submitted earlier in the year. To include events that happen after you have submitted your book for publishing, a supplement is a great way to provide additional coverage. (Just check with your yearbook representative for details on supplements.) If you want the entire school year included in the yearbook, choose Fall Delivery. This allows your submission deadline to be in the summer and your yearbooks will arrive after school reopens in the fall.
