Make FLO_BASE layer
The creation of a layer named FLO_BASE which can be used as an alternative to InDesign exported objects.
This simple tool makes a correctly named and postioned FLO_BASE layer in the active inDesign document.
Add a FLO_BASE by clicking the CircularFLO Tools > Document Tools > Make FLO_ BASE layer tool.
By default, images and text in fixed-layout EPUB are written into the page as 'live elements', meaning text has a font and style and can be selected and searched, and images have a position in the reading order and can have descriptions added.
This is typically the best approach for achieving accessible content, however this may not always be desirable. e.g. perhaps the text uses an unsupported font format or styling or images have been drawn in InDesign.
Moving InDesign objects onto a layer named FLO_BASE causes them to be flattened into one large background graphic. Any objects on the FLO_BASE layer are merged together and flattened into a single JPEG image at the export size of the page, set in the Preferences panel.
See more info in Options to flatten images and text on export.
