3 Ways to Reuse Elements
Vellum 3.6, our newest release, adds the powerful new Reuse Elements feature: a flexible way to share content across your books. Here are just three ways you can reuse elements:
Add Front and Back Matter
Blurbs, Also By, About the Author: front and back matter that is in all of your books. Save elements like these in a dedicated file, then reuse them in every new book you create.
Include a Teaser
Developing a series? Give readers of Book 1 a taste of Book 2 by creating a teaser. Reuse chapters from the next book in the series and give readers a sneak peek of what’s to come.
Build a Box Set
Once your series is complete, you can bundle the books as a box set. When you create a box set, chapters are automatically reused from the original books.
Update with Changes
However you reuse elements, you can easily update with changes to the source. Need to add books to your Also By, update your bio, or just fix a typo? Whatever the change, you can update with a click.
You can begin reusing elements with a free update to Vellum 3.6. You’ll need macOS Big Sur or newer.
