Flowing (and Reflowing) Portraits onto Pages

Portrait flow tips

• Portraits are added to your book directly on the book ladder. Do not add blank pages to your book ladder reserved for portrait pages
  
  
• Create separate sections for your portrait flow by group. Grid settings apply to all groups within a single sections, so if special formatting is required, keep your portrait groups separated.
  • Create one section for staff portraits.
  • Create separate sections for each grade or any class that needs special formatting
  • Optionally create a separate section for senior class portraits.
    
    
• Do not rename groups in the portrait manager after flowing or their pages will disappear. For example, a kIndergarten teacher goes by the name "Ms Smith: at the start of the year, but changes her name to "Mrs. Jones" after her class page has been flow, update her portrait's last name to Jones, update the portrait page title to Mrs. Jones' Kindergarten class, but do not reassign all her portrait and her students to Teacher: Jones.
  
  
• Candid pages may be added or moved between portrait pages after they have been flown to the ladder
