# Publish tab

> Publish a Document skill to the Skill Catalog and control derived-skill training from the Publish tab in Advanced Designer.

To publish a Document skill, use its **Publish** tab. Once published, the skill is immediately available in ABBYY Vantage and receives a version number.

<Tip>
  You can also publish a skill from the **Skill Catalog** on the start page. For the broader publishing workflow shared with the Skill Catalog, see [Publish a skill](/vantage/documentation/skill-catalog/publish-skill).
</Tip>

## Publishing options

When publishing a skill, you are asked whether additional training is allowed for [derived skills](/vantage/documentation/advanced-designer/document-skills/derived) created from this skill. Turn off the **Allow training of derived skills** toggle if you don't want to allow additional training for derived skills.

## Best practices

* If you used a large document set for training, delete the documents before publishing.
* Confirm labeling on the [**Fields**](/vantage/documentation/advanced-designer/document-skills/fields) tab and review extraction quality on the [**Results**](/vantage/documentation/advanced-designer/document-skills/results) tab before publishing — published skills should reflect verified labeling and acceptable accuracy.
