We are facing the following error "Application fails with editor.exe[A30382} capacity exceeded. string block page table entries error". This error is happening while importing GenText translations. We have been directed to split the stylesheets and import 4 or 5 GenText translation into a stylesheet. Is there any other suggestion to split the stylesheets ?

Hello all,   We would like to print a Georgian XML file with FOSI. In this XML file, we have index entries which should be printed in this position.   Could you please let me know why this is happening? Is there any place where we should define the Georgian letters/alphabet from where Arbortext will pull the letter in order to print the index correctly?   Regards Pavlos  

We are having an issue where editor terminates with no warning and closes all open editor windows. After it closes it does create an hs_err file each time. Anyone else have this issue?    Bryon

I am trying to understand burst configurations and more specifically, how to set Windchill attributes in a burst configuration file for doctypes.   For example, if I have the following in my burst config file <typerule elementname="graphic"targettype="wt.epm.EPMDocument|"/>   In Windchill, we have a defined soft type of com.aa.softtype.    What tag in the burst confg file should I modify with a default value so when the objects are burst into Windchill, the value is populated in the Windchill GUI?

We are currently thinking about switching from CGMS to SVGS to get our publish times down. When I created my test pdf using svgs, the items outside the bounding box in isodraw also show up in the pdf. Our editors use big models and show what they need to in the bounding box in Isodraw leaving the rest of the model outside the bounding box. With CGM's there is a isoconvert.prf file, in the editor install location, where I can specify to use the CGM VDC Extent (change 0 to 1). Then editor outputs only what is in the bounding box. PTC support says there is no optoin like this for svgs. What do other users do when using svgs?   Bryon

I'm looping through my array of chapter tags and comparing an attribute value to my loop counter and I don't know if my attribute is a string or integer. Because my document uses a double digit numbering system, attribute value 05 is equal to counter loop value 5. Any way for me to convert 05 to a string so when I compare them, they are not equal?   Also, I'm confused as to why I got an output of 566 when I output 5.00102. See the attached screen shot.   Thank you for all and any help!

When publishing with APE, if any profile is selected, we get red page published with no content. It seems that it cannot see our pcf files. Has anyone else seen this.   Bryon

When 'track changes' are on and user makes revisions to the content, the incorrect user name is displayed. AE preferences do have the correct user name. So I'm not sure where the random user name is coming from. Is there a setting that I can go to that will allow me to insert the correct user name?

We are using schematron for extra validation of our xml documents during the standard 'Check Completeness' function and working well.   We would like to create a separate menu item for a different schematron (a subset of <pattern>s) only to be run by certain users employees. We would like this second Schematron to be kicked off from a custom menu item using ACL.   I can create a menu no problem, but how can I get my menu item to reference the schematron file? Where should this schematron file be saved?

Hello,I have a problem with displaying images in *.pdf format in Arbortext Editor.The files with standard extensions (*.jpg, *.eps, etc) are displayed in Arbortext Editor, but when I try to insert an image in the *.pdf format, all I can see is an icon indicating a missing image.Does anybody know if this is a matter of changing the display options or maybe this format is not supproted?Thank you very much in advance.Sandra

Hi Everybody I need help on that one... i could not find script for editing text... I need to remove cs text on reference inside illustration ex:reference cs123_xyw need to be rename 123_xyz Thanks a lot for support!!!   Macro Delete CS# recorded with Arbortext IsoDraw 7.3 Select if text contains 'cs' from selection... ???delete cs???    

I recently discovered an issue with exporting 32 Bit color images of lineart in IsoDraw 7.2 where lines appear jagged and not anti-aliased (Please view the full size images to see the issue): However, if I export this same image as a 8 Bit grayscale image, the lines appear correctly anti-aliased:   Is this a bug in IsoDraw's export engine? This occurs with both PNG and JPEG files. Logically, the full 32 bit range of colors should have no issue properly containing the image information, but it appears IsoDraw is not anti-aliasing the lines on those exports.

Hi folks,   Has any one undergone the exercise of upgrading your Arbortext editor and APE base from 6.1 version to 7.1 recently?  I would like to get a few answers on below questions   What were the pitfalls you went through and were you able to get a solutions for all and transitioned completely? And was your 6.1 environment customized? If YES how did the customizations fair through during the upgrade and do you have any metrics on how much of your existing customization was re-usable without warranting further modifications or change to the code? We are considering an upgrade with our heavily customized environment and would like to have few inputs before we take the dive-in really.   Thanks in advance!   BR Amar Karthi ARASAN
