Monograph workflow

The monograph workflow is similar to the journal workflow, but with a few differences in what the export looks like. Our default monograph template is designed for books and theses with table of contents, list of figures, and other front matter. You can setup doubled-sided printing and use different page sizes.

You can read the journal workflow to familiarise yourself with the editor and how templates work in general.

BITS XML as an export is available.
