Hi everyone,I've been facing an issue regarding text alignment. I've included an example of what our text looks like below:Is there any way to make the text all line-up under the "you" at the beginning? It should look like the text below: WARNING: YOU MUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU CAN HOLD THE RADOME BEFORE YOU REMOVE/ INSTALL IT. THE RADOME IS HEAVY. IF IT FALLS, IT CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT. I've also included images of the FOSI below:

Has anyone come across the odd behaviour outlined below? The user is editing in Arbortext Editor 6.0 and also connected to Windchill 10.1. The user is trying to create a new XML file by copying and pasting content. When the user tries to insert a "bold" emphasis tag around content, the result is the content becomes underlined and not bold. The tag itself is an underlined tag. The user can go in and manually change the tag, however, we would like to know what is causing this odd behaviour. This never happened in the previous versions of Arbortext Editor.Is there a fix for this?

We are using AE 6.0 with Windchill. When we open an xml document in AE 6.0 we notice that the cursor will randomly jump from one location in the document to another. Has anyone else encountered this? If so, can provide the cause and possible a fix?It is very annoying when cutting and pasting from other docs into AE 6.0. The users must be careful not to paste content where it does not belong.Note: Could this have anything to do with the automatic "save" in AE 6.0.?

Hi all,I'm trying to record a macro in Arbortext Editor. I need the following:1) Insert markup pop up window;2) Choose query from bottom drop down list (I've modified my dcf file to allow datamerge);3) Select the only query name I got;4) Click on 'Insert' (or double click on name selected on query name at point 3).When I start macro recording, the only instance I get in my macro file is '#InsertMarkup' and no more. Also, trying to run it, it doesn't show the insert markup window, although permitted in current position.I wonder if it is possible or not.Any help?Thanks,Max

I am having an issue with Arbortext not excepting our .cgm files. the system is running Arbortext 6.0 M090. when the cgm is loaded I get a graphic symbol with an X over it. when I run a print preview there is an error that reads "the file does not contain a graphic format". Very odd the other computer with the exact same configuration works fine. Any help with this would be great.

We are making documentation for our products using Arbortext for Aerospace & Defence. If I Create a Build List in Arbortext Publisher I get a browser window telling me what data modules have been changed w.r.t. the previous published issue.Data modules in my delivered publication may change because they are changed for deliveries (other publications) to other customers. If my publications are in the DELIVERED state, there is no easy way to see if I have to supply my customer with updated publications. If I want to use the Create Build List to see if any data module has been changed, I have to raise the issue of the publication first. If I do so, the result can be that there is no need to send an update, leaving the publication in the PENDING state. I do not like that.There should be an option in the Publisher to see that data modules in a publication have been changed without the necessity to raise the issue of the publication or do I oversee any other possibility to track changed

Just wondering is anyone has a workaround for 5.4.If I force a page break in a table in Editor, by Table Properties, Row, and under Composed Output Option choose Force, sometimes the title float appears on the following pages of the table (desired behavior) and sometimes it doesn't. Normal float behavior resumes with following table (assuming no forced page breaks).PTC said this doesn't occur in 6.0, they didn't have a workaround, and that 5.4 is being "sunsetted" in October.

Hello everybody,I use Epic 5.3 M010 to create and manage Data Modules in accordance with S1000D.Our company recently passed from Windows XP to Windows 7 so we need to reinstall the program, but i'm having some annoying issues.The program seems to open fine the documents, you can modify various fields without problems and see all the tags, but when you try to modify some particular attributes with the CTRL+D command (i.e. illustrations and issue date/number) the program crash and you need to restart it forcedly. I've tried to change the .dtd and schemes associated to the documents but the problem is still here. This issue cause the impossibility to modify correctly the documents.I've read that Epic 5.3 is not officially certified for Windows 7, but that some users can use it without problems, so i wonder if it's a problem of wrong settings.Anybody have some clues to solve this issue?Thanks

Can anyone help with this problem?I have recently upgraded my PC and changed from Arbortext 6.0 to Arbortext 6.0 (64 Bit). Since the upgrade I have not been able to open any of my sgml files, I have setup the file locations as the previous PC but I get the following error message.If a browse for the DTD I can find it in the location I have setup under File Locations but it then asks me to recompile the DTD (this did not happen with the 32-bit version), selecting OK does nothing and dialogue box remains open.Has anyone any idea what is wrong, I guess it is a setup problem.Thanks

Hi everybody!I need to use the gentext of the table element to construct its header. In the table, there's an id in each, and the header change depending of the id value. So, I created a condition to test the id.When I preview the document with "Editor Preview", it works well, but when I use the "PDF Preview", the gentext doesn't work, I mean, the text I write in gentext is ignored.It happens only when I have a conditions, and only in the table element.

I'm debugging some of our tools, etc. in our switchover from Arbortext v5.3 for Unix to Arbortext v6.1 M010 for Windows. We have quite a few key mappings that I was hoping would not require any changes. The problem I'm encountering is that and any key combination of ALT plus a lowercase letter, e.g., ALT+c to insert a comment, does not work in the Windows version of Arbortext. If I key ALT+c Arbortext just beeps at me and does nothing. ALT plus a non-alphanumeric key, e.g., ALT+-, works just fine. Any thoughts on what could be causing this problem?Rick

Ed, This was an upgrade so the installer may have gone out and used the'install' information from the previous install. I know when I do a new version (e.g., 6 to 6.1) I can select what toinstall. I did not get that option with the M020 patch. LSo it could easily be that when I installed 6.1 I did not realize I wouldalso be getting Creo so I didn't select not to install it. Lynn

Hi developers,I want to insert some tags with in other tags by default in Arbortext Editor. Ex: when I insert Table tag , title should insert by default without changing optional to required in DTD. Is it possible with DCF files or FOSI files?Regards,Roopesh Navath

I have attached PDF from my book about using a string variable as a bitmap. It is similar to using a counter as a bitmap, but it works for a different DTD situation (a sequence of three elements, each of which is optional). I came up with this for some quick-and-dirty proof-of-concept code that was never completed. This approach seemed to be the easiest way to handle all the possibilities.Please let me know any comments, questions, corrections, etc.Thanks!Suzanne

Thursday, May 29, 2014 9:00 AM - 9:30 AM PDTOne of the last things that gets localized is your stylesheet. Stylesheets have generated text and that generated text needs to be translated too. (After all it isn't "Table of Contents" in Japanese.) In this session, we'll show you how to set your stylesheet up for localization. We'll do a quick export of the generated text strings and then an import of the 'translated' strings. And we'll publish our translated document! Sound fun? It's super easy to do and 30 minutes is all you need to understand how it works.Register here: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/871957858

Hi All,I have created a process where an editor using Arboertext without styler can do an html export from the xml document they are working on.I basically export a xsl - html file from styler. And they click on a button to run that xsl against the xml.If the xml has equations it does not show the equations in the html instead it shows the xml.Attached is a snippet of the equation in the html.If I publish to HTML from Styler the equations show as is in Arbortext.How do I get the Equation to show using the xsl ?ThanksAshona Krithallal
