Adding end matter
The procedure in this topic assumes Skribenta is installed and configured for normal operation, and:
-
You have logged into Skribenta.

You are assigned to one of the following user roles: content provider, technical writer or administrator.
-
You have selected the workspace you want to work in.

Before you can create, for example an appendix, you need to add an end matter part in your file content.
It is possible to add a front and end matter to the final published publication. Files are normally divided into three parts, each surrounded by a part element. Each of these elements is further defined by a class attribute.
-
Front matter (the part element with the class attribute set to frontmatter). This part usually contains a main title and a subtitle. This may be followed by an abstract, release information, etc.
-
Body (the part element with the class attribute set to body). This part contains the actual content organized into chapters (using the section element).
-
End matter (the part element with the class attribute set to endmatter). This part contains appendices, references and glossaries.
This instruction tells you how to add an end matter part to your file content.
