Document components

Document components are dynamic components, which operate differently than most other Tridion components. Dynamic components, instead of being inserted into a page, are created and published separately. Since document components are not inserted into a page, you set which page(s) the document will appear on by associating each document component with specific document list components (for a more thorough explanation, see the Introduction on the "Create a Document List page"). 

The Component

Component Templates

Other than the Document Highlights (static) page, document components are not inserted into pages and therefore they have no component templates applied to them. However, because document components are dynamic content, their content does render on certain page types. Below are examples of all the ways document components can be used in pages, both dynamic and static.
