Learn Avellio
2. Your first small inspection
Use a saved copy of a short document. Install and activate as described in the Quick Start Guide. Use an environment already verified for your work; this release-candidate documentation does not certify all platforms.
- Confirm the intended active document in InDesign and in the panel.
- Open Scope & inspection options. Choose Current Spread or a small Page Range. Ranges use document positions, not printed section labels.
- Select the modules required for this practice. Choose Editorial QA as a starting profile if it suits the document, and confirm the typography language policy.
- Check whole-story expansion. A linked story can extend beyond the pages you selected.
- Choose Inspect. Wait for completion without editing the document.
- Read Results from: scope, included modules and coverage. The controls under Next inspection describe your next run, not a change to existing results.
- Select one finding you understand. Read the inspector, then use its offered Show in text, Show paragraph context or composition-location action.
- Decide whether the occurrence is an error or an intentional choice. Use a supported preview only when appropriate; otherwise make a deliberate manual correction in InDesign or retain the occurrence.
- After a document edit, choose Update inspection and inspect the surrounding composition as well as the original target.
- Finish any preview and clear the active Avellio visualization. Save only the intended document state.
Success: one complete inspection, one justified decision and a current verification. A deliberately retained finding is an acceptable outcome.
