Example 1: Ad injection accounting for enhancements

Assume you configure ad injection as follows:

• Offset is 2.
• Frequency is 3.
• Limit is 3.
• Count enhancements in frequency is on.

The following drawing provides an example of ad injection with this configuration.

• The first ad appears after the second paragraph.
• The second ad appears after two paragraphs and one image enhancement.
• The third and final ad also appears after two paragraphs and one image enhancement.

Example 2: Ad injection ignoring enhancements

Assume you configure ad injection as follows:

• Offset is 2.
• Frequency is 3.
• Limit is 3.
• Count enhancements in frequency is off.

The following drawing provides an example of ad injection with this configuration.

• The first ad appears after two paragraphs.
• The second ad appears after three paragraphs (ignoring the image).
