Global Settings provide the defaults inherited by Business Units, Departments, and assets. Complete required fields marked with an asterisk, then apply overrides only where a narrower workflow genuinely differs. *** ## General Settings The **Business Email** receives Contact messages when no dedicated recipient is configured and serves as a fallback for several notification and approval flows. General Settings also control the physical address shown to users, logo and logo destination, page background, enabled asset types, Guest duration, home-page messages, and first-job tips. ### User Downloads Administrators can create download categories and publish logos, brand guides, training documents, and videos on the signed-in Home page. A similar area can expose selected files on the sign-in page before authentication. ### Localization The site can follow the browser locale or use a configured language and date/number format. Administrators can set a locale per user, and users can change it in **My Account**. Editors can use a separate locale or inherit the site locale. Use **Base Fonts** and the editor settings to control the fonts and styling choices exposed during customization. Detailed restrictions and device-specific editor selection are covered in [**Editor & Gallery Customization**](/gemini-home/guides/editor-customization.md). ## Submission Settings Submission settings control how assets are selected and what users must provide before completion. * Choose whether subcategories start expanded or collapsed. * Require a **Reference** value for submitted jobs. * Add custom instructions to the Job Submission page. * Allow a pre-submission PDF proof and choose its PDF preset. * Configure proof watermark text, size, and color, and optionally reuse it for approver PDFs. * Allow Template resizing within minimum and maximum percentages. Resizable Templates require Liquid Layout on every InDesign page and unlocked pages in the Background layer. Resizing can be overridden per Template. **Prepopulate with user details** replaces Template content with profile tags such as `|ROLE|`, `|NAME|`, `|COMPANY|`, `|PHONE|`, `|EMAIL|`, `|TIMEZONE|`, and `|USERPHOTO|`. Enterprise sites also support `|DEPTLOGO|`. Text tags can be replaced inline or by frame name; image tags must be used as frame names. ## Notifications Notification settings define recipients and reminders for account requests, Contact messages, asset category changes, job status changes, approvals, and campaign deadlines. * If account-request or information-request recipients are blank, BrandingUI uses the Business Email. * New account requests begin as Disabled until approved or matched by an automatic rule. * Job reminders can wait a configured number of days and run only on selected weekdays. A reminder that falls on a skipped day is sent on the next allowed day. * **Test Email** verifies delivery and removes a repaired address from the bad-email list after a successful send. * **Analyze site for bad emails** in the three-dot menu finds settings that still reference blocked addresses. ## PDF Presets Upload InDesign `.joboptions` files to define PDF generation for high-resolution print, low-resolution proofs, bleed and crop-mark review, or screen distribution. Presets can be selected by completion methods, approver downloads, proof downloads, and CC recipient settings. Use descriptive names so the correct preset is clear elsewhere in administration. ## Reports, Submissions, and Approval History Reports are generated as Excel (`.xlsx`) files for a selected date range, which defaults to the past year. Available reports can include Campaigns, Jobs, Users, Templates, Packages, and User Searches. The Jobs report includes deleted and expired work that is absent from normal list pages. The **Submissions** area provides search and filters across submitted jobs and Forms, while **Approval History** records who approved or rejected each job and when. ## DAM Integration BrandingUI uses the LinkrUI connector to load supported DAM providers. In General Settings under DAMs, choose which providers can act as sources and destinations. * Designers can import up to 10 PSD files from a DAM while creating a Package. * Completed and approved outputs can be uploaded individually to a selected DAM folder. * Job upload history records which outputs were sent and where. * Administrators can download ZIP archives of offloaded files belonging to their site. ## Email Integrations MailChimp and Silverpop/Acoustic integrations deliver supported HTML email jobs. Configure the provider credentials and test the connection before production use. Completion-specific parameters, including sender details, time zone, upload folders, contact-list queries, and template header/footer HTML, are documented under [**Job Completion & Output Methods**](/gemini-home/reference/completion-methods.md). ## Theme and Home Content Theme Settings control interface colors and accents. Logo, background image, welcome text, first-time tips, and Home-page downloads remain in General Settings. Review sign-in, navigation, asset lists, editors, and job pages after changes, and keep text/background contrast accessible. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.santacruzsoftware.com/gemini-home/guides/site-configuration.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
