You can open a glossary at any time in the Glossary Editor to modify its contents. For each glossary that you open to edit, an independent instance of the Glossary Editor opens in a separate tab, allowing you to edit multiple glossaries at one time. When you edit a glossary, you can add, edit, or delete glossary terms, where each glossary entry consists of a term (the text to be matched for markup), a link to an attachment that provides its definition, a tooltip (optional), and markup conditions (Match Whole Word and/or Match Case).


After making any changes to a glossary, you should update glossary links to apply your changes.

  1. From the Library, open the glossary document that you want to edit.
     
  2. Add, edit, and/or delete glossary terms as needed.
     
  3. Save and close the glossary document.
     
    When you close a glossary document to which you have made and saved changes, you are prompted to update glossary links. Click Yes to update links for all documents to which the glossary is assigned, or click No to close the glossary without updating links.
     
    If you have not saved the changes before closing the glossary, you are prompted to save the glossary and update links, to save the glossary without updating links, or not to save the glossary. Select the appropriate option and click OK, or click Cancel to keep the glossary open without saving changes.
