I have applied a condition to a context of the 'p' element in Arbortext Styler. And when I point to the text in editor it highlights this context and the sub-condition correctly. But when I publish the pdf the styling defined for the condition like text color, size, indent, etc., don't reflect in the published PDF.How can I debug this issue to find out where is the styling coming from for this element and how can I change it?Here's a snap of the mentioned context and condition with the document structure in editor in the background: 

Hi,What would I need to do to be able to update the resource manager so that when I need to create a new topic and insert it into the map, my custom topic document type is available. This option should be useable for everyone. I know I would normally use the point the aptcustom environment variable to a specific location. But my custom dita doc types are stored outside of the conventional folder. Google is not turning up any results for me. For reference, I already have a custom_init.acl file in my custom folder. The path to this folder is already set in my aptcustom environment variable. So I think ideally, I would need to change something in this acl, but not sure what. All I know after this point is that I need to be able to provide a link somehow to where my custom dtd's are.

Hello,In my bookmap I have different layers (part/chapter/topicref), if I use profiling on one layer, then profiling on a child layer of this layer does not work.For example: I have 3 products A, B and CChapter1 (profiled for B and C)- Topicref1 (profiled for B)- Topicref2 (profiled for C)- Topicref3 (not profiled)Now if I publish with profile A, nothing will show (as expected).But if I publish with profile B (or C) then the 3 topicref will appear when I'm only expecting 2 (Topicref1 and Topicref3 for B).Am I missing something?

Hi All,I am working on creating templates for the company. Basically, at some point, I would need to aggregate the documents from other teams into a super document.Map product 3 - key def (company name) - map reference - product 1  -- key: product_name = product1  -- text for product 1, " This is product 1 " - map reference - product 2  -- key: product_name = product2  -- text for product 2 " this is product 2 " output desiredblah blah blah "product 3" - this is product 1 - this is product 2 not desired outputblah blah blah "product 3" - this is product 3 - this is product 3 I think I might be explaining it poorly, but I'm not too familiar with this. Does arbortext do something like this already? But when it comes to aggregating several of these smaller documents together each using "product_name" but with different products, does it take ...? I have read oasis documentation on keyscope, but as far as I can

Hello All,Good day!!I am experiencing an issue updating the Publishing Engine URL in Arbortext (Tools → Preferences → Publishing Engine).

In Arbortext, I've got an odd problem I can't find a solution to. Working in XML, there appear to be spaces after the period in the last sentence of a para. But there are no spaces in the xml. If I put my cursor just after the period and hit backspace, it doesn't delete the period, but instead several characters before that. See screen shots -- instead of deleting the period it deletes the y in "Treasury". I have uninstalled and re-installed version 7.0. Anyone seen this before and have a solution? It gets to be a real problem when trying to edit text in the middle of a para, because the cursor placement becomes meaningless.
