-After fixing the UID, simply adding the book or magazine to the Local Books directory on Gutenberg should result in an E-Document being auto-generated.

 In some cases, an E-Document may not be generated automatically. While this can be caused by UID formatting errors, it can also occur even if the UID has been formatted correctly. In these cases, it may be necessary to manually create an E-Document and its associated E-Package. For more information on the process, please refer to ''Manually Generating E-Documents in KLAS'' below. In some cases, an E-Document may not be generated automatically.
