Whether you're on Mac or Windows, you can still preview your work on an iPad through the Cloud. Simply creating a folio is enough to put it in the Cloud. And let's take a look at how we are going to do that. I'm going to go over to the Folio Builder panel, and I just want to do a couple of things before we do this. And, I'm going to take this folio that we've created and select it, I'm going to open up the Folio Builder panel menu, and I want to go to Folio Properties.
Because, we're not going to have anything to identify this folio in the library view until we fill out this information. So, we'll just call this Roux Academy Catalog, and I'll leave the Viewer Version alone. Add those Cover Previews. And those are in this folder here and we'll get the vertical first and the horizontal. I'll say OK. Those images are uploaded. The name of the folio is uploaded.
And we're ready to take a look at that on the iPad. This method's going to require me to sign in, so I'm just going to tap the Sign In button. And I'm going to login with my credentials. I'll tap Sign In. And there is my folio, available for download. You'll notice there's a little cloud icon with an arrow in it and that indicates that it's available for download, through the cloud. We'll just tap on the cover image, and that will bring up a button for me to download. I'll tap on that.
This will take a moment or two, depending on the size of your folio as it downloads, and you can see that was pretty quick. This is a small download. And I can just scroll through these pages now. Pretty much the same as the local preview as well. And there you have it. It's that simple to preview your work through the cloud.
