Working with Objects
Objects such as images, text blocks, and PDFs cannot be stored directly in a main or subtable field in an MDM repository. Instead, each object is defined or imported into the repository once and then linked to a main or subtable field as a lookup into the object table of that type.
From within the Data Manager, you can access objects in several ways:
● Object tables
● Object fields
● Object lookup fields
● The object selector dialog
The use and appearance of each way are described in the following sections.
