Book Chart Box Designs The boxes of a Book Chart contain an automated field for pointing the reader to the page in the booklet where the organizational hierarchy is continued.

Preparing and Printing a Book Chart • There are five steps… • Generate the chart for the entire organization. • Apply one of the Book Chart box designs to all boxes in the chart. • Apply page headers and footers. • Preview the Book Chart before printing. • Print the Book Chart.
Generate the Chart for the Entire Organization Grow your organization chart in the normal way, starting with a search for the top-most position (e.g., Deputy Minister). Be sure to designate enough levels to display the organization from top to bottom. For a ministry, select ten levels just to be sure. Don’t worry about formatting the Map Chart that will first be displayed. That’s not the format that will be printed.
Apply a Book Chart Box Design Select all boxes and apply either of the two Book Chart Box designs (Book Chart Basic or Book Chart Plus Class). These box designs contain the embedded page reference data field.
Apply Page Headers and Footers Recommended… Department Number for the top left corner Date for the bottom left corner Page Number for the bottom right corner
Click Preview Book to continue… Preview your Book Chart before you print!
Check for (1) page references in the boxes, and (2) page headers and footers.
If box design, headers and footers are in order, print the Book Chart!
Distributing a Book Chart A Book Chart for a large organization may be fifty pages or more in length. If you need to distribute copies, consider converting the Book Chart to PDF format, then distribute it electronically! This requires Adobe Acrobat software, which is commonly available in most organizations.
