The due date is displayed in black if there is at least one day left to the set due date. If it is red, the date either falls due today or has already fallen due some time ago.

Every project also has one of the following statuses:

Note: all points where you have set numbering as "Restart" will have corresponding outlook in the exported files only. If you create a project into a new document in SMASHDOCs or into an SDOX file, only headings will be restarted.

The chosen documents will be generated into one document in the same order they are laid out in the project. If you want to change it, arrange the documents accordingly.

●exporting to PDF (SRZ)

●exporting to PDF paginamedia (xpub-suite)

●ParsX XML file
