How to publish only selected folders or files in a Book file?

Question

Hi Frame Users, I have a FrameMaker Book with multiple folders containing .fm files. While I'm developing the Book and sending chapters for review, I want to be able to publish only selected folders or files in the Book, not the whole Book file. I don't seem to be able to find out how to do this, can you help? (Framemaker 2019)

What happens if you right-click on the components you don't want to publish and choose Exclude?

Also, remember that books are basically just pointers to FrameMaker documents, so it might be faster to just create an alternative book that has just the components you want to publishing.

Jeez frameexpert! Thanks, I won't tell you how long I've been looking. Now it seems very obvious.
