Review the following terms in order that you can fully understand the information provided in this chapter.

 Version

 One variation of a publication that has some content in common with another variation of the same publication and some content that is unique. 
For example, a publication that has common images, but one variation has English text and the other has Spanish text, can be said to have an English version and a Spanish version. 

 Base content

 Content that is the same in (common to) all versions.
For example, if two versions of a publication have the same images, the base content is the common images.
In a job with editions, each edition can have a different set of base content.

 Change content

For example, if a publication has common images, but one variation has English text and the other has Spanish text, the change content is the English text and the Spanish text.
In a job with editions, change content is content that is unique to a version, or an edition, or both.
