# Headless or automated

Imagine a process that runs in the background, creating collateral in an automated way.
In the context of CHILI GraFx, **"Headless"** or **"Automated"** refers to the ability to produce design variants by interacting directly with the API, without using the graphical interface of GraFx Studio.

This approach is ideal for scenarios where you want to automate the creation of large batches of content, integrate with external systems, or streamline workflows that don't require manual input. By leveraging the API, you can:

- **Generate Variants at Scale**: Automatically create hundreds or thousands of variations without manual intervention.
- **Integrate Seamlessly**: Connect GraFx Studio with your existing systems, like DAMs, PIMs, or e-commerce platforms.
- **Run Background Processes**: Initiate batch jobs and monitor output tasks programmatically.

Headless automation empowers you to use the powerful capabilities of GraFx Studio while keeping everything behind the scenes, providing flexibility and efficiency for high-volume or fully automated workflows.

# Multi-Page Support in GraFx Studio

**GraFx Studio** supports multi-page documents[^1].

This is primarily relevant in a **print environment**. Understanding when and why to use multiple pages depends on the **intent** of your design project.

[^1]: As of writing, a maximum of 50 pages is supported.

## When to Use Multi-Page Documents

GraFx Studio offers three [layout **intents**](/GraFx-Studio/concepts/layout-intent/).

## Why Multi-Page Only Makes Sense for Print

In print workflows, multi-page documents are common and essential for:

- **Brochures**: Combining several pages to convey detailed information.
- **Flyers, leaflets**: Presenting extensive content across multiple pages.
- **Business cards**: Typically front- and backside
- **Reports and Booklets**: Structuring content into chapters or sections.

In **digital static** and **digital animated** designs, the concept of multiple pages doesn’t apply. These projects typically involve single-page outputs designed for screens, where navigation is handled differently (e.g., scrolling, slideshows, or animations).

## How To

See [How to add, hide, and delete pages](/GraFx-Studio/guides/pages/).

# Multiple Pages

See also: [Pages & Layout Intents](/GraFx-Studio/concepts/pages/)

![screenshot-full](multipage.gif)

## Add Pages

Choose **Layouts** > **Pages** > **Add Page**

!!! info "Intent matters"
Add Pages is only visible for layouts with print intent

## (Re-)Arrange Pages

Drag a page before or after another page.

![screenshot-full](arrangepages.gif)

## Hide Pages

Click the **Eye** icon on the page, or **"..."** > **Hide Page**

### Good to Know!

- When only one page is visible, it cannot be hidden.
The **Show/Hide** option is disabled, and the Eye icon/toggle is hidden.
- Hidden pages can still be selected and edited.
- Hidden pages do not output.

![screenshot](page01.png)
![screenshot](page02.png)

- Visibility applies to all [layouts](/GraFx-Studio/concepts/layouts/).
It is not possible to hide different pages in different layouts.
- When a document is loaded, the first visible page is selected.

![screenshot](page01.png)

!!! info "[Studio UI](/GraFx-Studio/concepts/template-management/) Considerations"

- Hidden pages are ignored.
The page navigation panel only shows snapshots of visible pages.
When only one page is visible, the panel is hidden.
In the example below, page 1 is hidden, so it is not shown in the panel:

![screenshot-full](page03.png)

- Page numbers only reflect visible pages (the end-user doesn’t need to know about hidden pages).
- Upon loading, the first visible page is selected.

!!! warning "Digital"

- Layouts with a **digital intent** use the first **visible page** instead of always using page 1.
If you hide page 1, it affects all digital layouts.

## Delete Pages

Click **"..."** > **Delete Page**

Confirm the deletion (or cancel).

!!! info "Delete Last Page"

When only one page is visible, it cannot be deleted.
The **Delete** option is disabled.
