Hello,  When I try to use a New StyleSheet or Open Stylesheet with any dita topic file that I was to see the print preview, I am getting a red screen of error. Error message reads: <Level>ERROR</Level><Message>Pg 1 New page sequence not specified;used fallback 'defaultPage'. [1035] (1:"editorDom0"#{2;/}) </Message>   I have reinstalled Arbortext and no luck. It happens with example style sheets as well. Please help. 

When using a split Left-Right View, with one view on Document Map and the other in Edit, the behavior of the Document Map side is different depending on whether you have Track Changes on. To replicate, open a document in Arbortext and place your cursor at the top of the file. Go to Window and select Left-Right Split (if your window is not already split). Click inside the left pane. Go to menu View and select Document Map. Go to menu GC View and select Section Level. Click inside the right pane and go to menu GC View and select View All. Go to Tools, Change Tracking, and make sure Track Changes does not have a check next to it. In the right pane, add or delete text. The left pane does not change. Go to Tools, Change Tracking, and make sure Track Changes is checked. In the right pane, add or delete text. In the left pane, the section you are editing will expand the sectin and show the changes you are making. Question: Can we make the behavior consistent - NOT expanding the map - when tra

I am using IsoDraw 7.3 build M080 build 6 currently. I am working on creating a graphic and was using the "Fillet" command and all was well, then all of sudden the program stop trimming the ellipse and the line segments. I have tried exiting the program and coming back in with no luck.   Has anyone had this happen? I don't know if I might have hit a key or something. It is really puzzling that it was working fine then all of sudden stopped working correctly.   Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.   Keith

Hello this is my first question to this forum. I have read many posts and have been helped by previous questions and answers.   I need to create a macro that reads a value in column A (equal to the opened filename) from an external file (excel, but I can convert it to something else if it would be better.). and copy the value in column B to a textfield with a specific object id.   help/Andreas  

We had a toolbar created for us that is only active in dita topics not in the ditamap. How do I change it to be active for ditamaps? The tool bar always docks and undocks as you close and reopen topics so it never stays in place. What do I need to look for?   Bryon

Anyone using idr's for there images in editor? Do you also use Isodraw for the images? I was thinking about using idrs but anything that is outside the hatched box in Isodraw also shows up in the editor view.

Is there an easy way to reduce the text size for translations. We currently use 10 for English and was thinking about 8 for translations. Is this common practice?   Thanks   Bryon

I have a 2500 page document that is taking 6 hours to generate. It's a custom bookmap with maprefs to topicrefs.   I have 2 issues: The length of time it takes to generate the PDF:Is there a way to break up this document and still get a full index with correct page numbers?  The styling of the index is messed up halfway through the index.We have been generating individual indexes for each document and the index looks good. Once we compiled the full book/PDF, the styling was all messed up. Our deadline to finalize content is next week. Note we have approx 142 topicrefs, broken down into approx 20 maprefs. Also, note, we used PE 7.0 to generate the PDF. I am currently testing with Styler to see if there's any improvement.   Can anyone help or offer advice on how to handle this large document or why the styling of the index is all messed up. I am attaching a screenshot of the index.     I can live with the 6 hour performance, however, I really need to fix the s

Hi,   I tried to run activation file but kept getting the error “All subprocesses are currently busy”, even though we set the configurations according to the instructions we were given for replacing APP-E with APE as well as configurations in Tomcat 8.5 We don't have other subprocesses, as far as we know, so we aren't sure what's wrong.

Hello everyone, we are looking at creating an online help system. The web output from editor is not really useful so far. Looking for some guidance of what we should be looking for.

Hi all,   I have a Flex LM license server running and I need to export one of those licenses to an air-gapped PC. I have no idea what I am doing as the license guy was laid off. I can see we have LMTOOLS running on the server and it shows FlexLM server for PTC. I also see a borrowing tab but it does not seem to give me a license file that I can use.   I click Borrowing, I leave Vendor Name: All, I set a return date/time, and hit "set borrow expiration". But where would I get the license key that I need?         Users of ArbortextEditor: (Total of 15 licenses issued; Total of 4 licenses in use) "ArbortextEditor" v8.0, vendor: ptc_d floating license        

Presented by Single-Sourcing Solutions Inc.   In this session, we discuss some of the factors that compel forward-focused companies and consultants to make the leap to XML. You will learn what XML is, how it works, and how you can move from the trap that is desktop publishing into a flexible, dynamic structured authoring environment with ease. By the end of our talk, you will be able to comfortably answer the important questions: Why should you make the transition? How can you make the transition? And, when is the right time to make the leap?   Registration URL:  https://ptc.zoom.us/webinar/register/3116191140212/WN_XHp05BVhRgyfm3ls1wrjpQ

Recently had to reinstall Arbortext on my workstation and it seemed like the installation went well until I tried to preview a document in Editor. It never gets past the second page while formatting before just not doing anything else, it doesn't freeze or lock up, just isn't doing anything.  Verified that the xmls work on other workstations. I don't see any noteable differences in my settings compared to other workstations.  Not sure if anyone has run into an issue like this before and would know what to look for.

As was previously announced, the support for SOAP requests in Arbortext Publishing Engine is deprecated.  We expect to remove SOAP support in the release that is currently planned for October, 2021.

My illustration looks great in IsoDraw, so I export it to WebCGM 2.1 for downstream processes.  It looks great in the downstream process, but if I import the .cgm file back to IsoDraw it is missing line colors, line weights, leader-line halos, and area colors to name a few.

I trying to upload a newly created Arbortext document to Windchill and I'm getting the error "AutoNumber Action Failed Number of conflictsfound:1 :Incorrect or nonexistent Type category "WCTYPE|wt.epm.EPMDocument|@softtypeprefix@.DynamicDocument|@softtypeprefix@.commonsection" using the function " but others using the same system are not. I'm quite new to Arbortext so any help is appreciated.   Thanks
