Workspace View

SEC Publisher HTML Editor allows you to view your HTML document in various ways:

Design View
The Design View offers the easiest way to edit your document, where the content during editing appears very similar to the final document.

Code View
The Code View allows you to edit the underlying HTML code of your document.

Both Design and Code View
Both Design and Code View allows you to see both the Design View and the Code View simultaneously.

In the new version of SEC Publisher HTML Editor, the default view will be assigned to Design View.

Context Sensitive Properties Window

The ‘Context Sensitive Properties Window’ allows you to view and edit the properties of the elements you are currently working on.

Copy and Paste text from other source (will be automatically EDGARized)

As you copy and paste text from other documents, SEC Publisher automatically EDGARizes the text to ensure 100% SEC compliancy.

Tip: During copying and pasting any content from outside in the editor, the content is automatically EDGARized.

Tip: You can copy and paste any content from outside in the editor, but note that structured content such as tables or lists might lose their structure.

Validating Changes (File > Validate)

As you make changes to an HTML page, use the Validation feature to check the SEC Compliancy of your HTML. This feature is particularly useful if you make changes directly to the HTML code in the Code View or copy-and-pasting code from other sources.

All validation error would appear on the bottom of the screen. Double clicking on an error will automatically take you to the HTML code in question:

Apply and Lock Changes (File > Apply and Lock)

The ‘Apply and Lock’ option ensures that the changes on a particular page will not be overwritten the next time you need to reconvert the whole document.

Show Table Border

Show Table Border (View > Show Table Borders)

Select this option to put a border on the tables you are working on. This border only appears during editing to help you work on tables that do not have border, and will not appear in your published HTML.
