Step 1: Import the PDF via UpDoc
UpDoc reads the PDF and fills in the page content automatically. You will review what it extracted before the page is created.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”Note down three things — you will need them during this step and the steps that follow:
| What | Where to find it | Example |
|---|---|---|
| TTM number | PDF filename | TTM5171 |
| Online Tour Reference | Provided by Tailored Travel | rchd271 |
Step 1 — Open Create from Source
Section titled “Step 1 — Open Create from Source”In the Content section, right-click the Tailored Tours node in the left-hand tree and choose Create Document from Source.
Step 2 — Choose the document type and blueprint
Section titled “Step 2 — Choose the document type and blueprint”Two prompts appear one after the other:
- Choose document type: select Tailored Tour
- Choose blueprint: select [Tailored Tour Blueprint]
Step 3 — Enter the document name
Section titled “Step 3 — Enter the document name”Type the TTM number (e.g. TTM5171) in the Document Name field.
Do this before uploading the PDF. If you leave it blank, the system will use the tour title from the PDF instead. The TTM number is used throughout the system — it is how the member login and the URL all link up.
Step 4 — Upload the PDF
Section titled “Step 4 — Upload the PDF”Click + Choose next to PDF File. A media picker opens.
Navigate to PDF > Tailored Tours. Then drag and drop the PDF into the picker. It uploads and is selected automatically. You will see it appear with a blue tick.
Step 5 — Check the extracted content
Section titled “Step 5 — Check the extracted content”A green “Content extracted successfully” message confirms it worked. The system shows you three tabs of extracted content:
- Page Properties — the tour title, short title, and description
- Page Content — the itinerary, features, accommodation, sights, and extras
- Tour Organiser — the organiser’s name, organisation, email, telephone, and address
Review these quickly. They should match the PDF. You can fix anything after the page is created.
Step 6 — Create the document
Section titled “Step 6 — Create the document”Continue through to create the document. Umbraco creates the new Tailored Tour page under Tailored Tours.
Step 7 — Save and publish
Section titled “Step 7 — Save and publish”Open the new page and click Save and publish.
If you get an error
Section titled “If you get an error”Occasionally the import shows an error message. This is a timing issue — run the import again from Step 1 and it will succeed.
