LDInstruction

[Cam's Bricks]

Thanks for giving LDInstruction a try, and special thanks for your feedback.

The concept of LDInstruction is somewhat different to LPub3D. In LDInstruction, the page layout is defined and all images are created in some kind of batch job. There is a preview per step, but not per page. All included sub-models are created as separate steps but can be inlined by setting the inline option. Maybe take a look at the example in post #22 of this thread.

I could offer some screenshots for the appropriate options. If you don't mind sharing your model, I would create them using your model.

That is quite interesting, in that case, can a PDF and/or per page PNG export be easily added? I do not have LibreOffice (I know it is free but I would prefer a different work flow). I currently use PDF exports to make draft books before the final books (pdfs). For final books, I export all my instructions as transparent PNG files and use Adobe InDesign to add covers, page numbers, detail/information pages, etc..

**Edit** - another thought, would it be possible to parse in the LPub3D metas? I already have a lot of page setup, fonts, colors, etc setup from there and having those be able to be used would be a big help. I will get a file for you soon
