Is there a non-ACL method for formatting gentext with text folded to all lower-case? I've found the counter specifier [AL], but that seems to only apply to generated counters. There is highlt, but that only allows for all caps. You can force an e-i-c to small-caps, but not lower-case. I'd rather not write an acl function to use lowercase() on the gentext savetext.Regards,Steve CuznerProduct and Web Help Group

Does anyone know how to collapse all file references quickly when using a document containing a bunch of xincludes to reference other docs, but allow the file name to display?Normally I use entities, but AE 6.0M060 crashes when the parent document is open and a child is edited. Later iterations of 6.0 have the same problem. Work around is using xincludes but all children are expanded when the parent is opened, making a really long document to scroll through.

Dear all, There are 2 questions about the text around fig, and the location for the fig title. Could you give me any tips please? Thanks!1.

Ok, so I'm needing to request a Flex license for one of our PE installations (testing 6.1 from 5.4).Does the PE server license need to be node-locked or floating? Reading through the knowledge base, I am not getting a definitive "this/not this" feel for what I need to use.Also, when requesting the Flex license, does the PTC Host ID/Host Name need to be the ID and name of the license server, or the server PE is installed on?Jason A.

This might be a basic question... but how do you open a document object in the active window (open it in Arbortext).I'm making a call to a REST server requesting an XML file and I'm trying to get it to open in Arbortext. Code I have so far with the REST request being successful:var curDoc = Application.openDocument("http://user:password@myRESTrequestserver);curDoc.open();

Why aren’t I presenting at PTC Live Global 2015? Because Arbortext Editor is not included.This is not immediately obvious. The PTC Live Global 2015 Call for Presenations site lists the PTC Product Family as follows: - PTC Creo - PTC Integrity/Atego - PTC Mathcad - PTC Windchill - PTC Windchill FlexPLM - ThingWorx - OtherHoping that "Other" included Arbortext, I clicked on the Submit Your Presentation link, but I found I had to create a profie in order to get to the point where I could find out about Arbortext. I did this and learned that Arbortext is not listed. To confirm that Arbortext is not included in the 2015 event, I emailed -, who is listed as the "more information" person. That was October 22. I have not yet received a reply.Suzanne Napoleonwww.FOSIexpert.com"WYSIWYG is last-century technology!" ----- Forwarded Message -----

I need to be able to created destinations in my PDF output that are named based on the value of the ID attribute. In Styler with the APP engine, named destinations are created by creating a hash of the current node's path and then converting it to a string:$var hash = application.calculateHash( currentNode.getNodePath( 1 ));<>$var linkName = "links:link" + hash.toString( 16 );<>I need to be able to control the name of the destination using an attribute (the ID attribute) so that I can link to it from a different PDF document.Named destinations are different from bookmarks in that they allow you to link to them from an external location (website, PDF file, etc.), and they will open to the specific page of the destination. The link works like this: [filePath]/[pdfFileName]#[namedDestination].The code specified above is found in the APP library [installPath]\app\libs\APPStyler\app.3ns in multiple locations.Has anyone worked within Styler OR using the library above to create a

One of the customer in Korea, they has 2month evaluation license for ISODraw. so they test ISODraw all function before buy it.

I've been trying to get lengthy footnotes to split and run onto the next page's footnote section when outputting to PDF. The reason for this is that I've got footnotes with a lot of text in them, and they are just pushing up the rest of the page's content to the extent that it looks completely unbalanced. By default, Arbortext keeps footnotes on the same page as their references, however I've acquired an APP-template that should enable footnote splitting. Unfortunately it isn't working. I've attached the template to this question. If anyone with APP-template knowledge could take a look and let me know what's missing/incorrect it would be much appreciated!

Hi everyone,In one of our new manuals, I’ve been trying to set up our revdates to show up in the LEP and in our footers at the graphic element level. For some reason, our document keeps using the overall revdate for the overall document and not the revdate that is specific to each graphic. Can you help me set up the document where it will use revdates for each graphic instead of the overall revdate?

In Arbortext Styler, I am designing a stylesheet from a blank sytle. When I tried to edit GenText and insert the division reference, however, this menu is grey. While I chek the standard stylesheet, the division refernce menu does work. Is there any setting I should do before editing the GenText? Thank you in advance.
