Has anyone done this?Using the 5.3 XSL stylesheet originally exported from a 5.3 .style file butthen forked and modified independently from the .style, I am getting an11KB .chm file that opens but has no apparent content. The left-hand TOCpane is empty. The right-hand content pane displays "The page cannot bedisplayed" error. The final two lines of the error page say: Cannot find server or DNS error Internet ExplorerViewing source I see the meta/title is: Cannot find serverI have re-exported a working 6.0 .style file (upgraded from the 5.3 .style)to htmlhelp XSL but that stylesheet fails in the same way as noted above.I am able to make a .chm using a generic 6.0 Styler session and anaxdocbook XML instance against both an axdocbook .style and an .xslexported from the .style so I do have properly wired up HTML Help at thatlevel.(For some reason I can't get File > Publish > For HTML Help to appear. Ihave been issuing "composehtmlhelp" from the command line after settingpeservices=of

Hello all! I just found this site, thanks to SSS.We're trying to work through our ArborText install issues, and the latest is pasted below.

I am just wondering when publishing a pdf it seems to lock the program from doing anything else. Can I open a different ditamap or a differenct topic and work on that while it is publishing or is it just wasted time until it is done?Bryon

When openning a cgm file to hotspot and there after reexporting it, when that file is put in the datbase it has a box around the image (raster).Only when I select the image (raster) and select "no pen" will fix this issue. Why does this box added in the first place? This is taking ALOT of time, where I could be doing other work...This is the problem when I dont click "no pen"...

When we save a CGM and reopen it we lose lineweights and leader lines get exploded off of the object that it is referencing. What kind of CGM should we be Exporting to in order to retain lineweights and leader line position...if we want to use CGMs as our native format versus ISO?

Adepters:We use XIncludes extensively. Normally, even if you have write access to an XIncluded object, you can't make changes until you lock the entity. That happens automatically if you click inside the object. However, we have a couple of macros that we use to globally find and then replace a certain attribute (which get invoked by function keys):<macro name="findChangeStatus"><desc>Finds next changeStatus attribute</desc><script type="application/x-acl"></script></macro><macro name="deleteChangeStatus"><desc>Finds next changeStatus attribute and deletes</desc><script type="application/x-acl"> oid_delete_attr(oid_current_tag(), "changeStatus");]]></script></macro>Unfortunately, these don't cause the entity to be locked, so the deleteChangeStatus doesn't work. I found an ACL function, "oid_entity_lock", which would seem to be what I need. But, not being an accomplished ACL programmer, I can't figure out how to

I got error when starting up Arbortext.Arbortext Editor Response:[A18115] Error in initialization file: C:\Program Files\PTC\Arbortext Editor\adapters\com.ptc.prowt.arbortext\init\WindchillAdapterInitializer.js,(A12281) Cannot create a Java virtual machine from“\\....\jre7\bin\Client\jvm.dll” (-1).James

Hi, I am receiving lots of illustration in ISO format which are converted from PRO-E, Solidworks, etecetera softwares. If i check the entities when opening in Isodraw they have lot of nodes(line segments). If i try to remove the nodes by using OPTIMIZE-SMOOTH, or AUTOMATIC option the profile of the entites are changing. If the Line segments are reduced the file size is reducing. My targeted output is webCGM(exported form iso, web cgm, compressed) of lesser file size(~250Kb). Is there any option to achieve the target? Your thoughts.Thanks for your cooperation.

For example, one can't make one of the following savetexts work:<e-i-c gi="dtdelement"...<br"/><savetext textid="myvar1.txt" conrule="!<myelement<br />myattr="!,#CONTENT(dtdattr),!">!,#CONTENT,!</myelement>!" placemnt="before"><savetext textid="myvar2.txt" conrule="\<myelement<br />myattr="\,#CONTENT(dtdattr),\">\,#CONTENT,\</myelement>\" placemnt="before">dtdattr is CDATA and the possible values are endless ...Later I want to <usetext conrule="myvarX.txt"<br"/>Or am I wrong and there is a magic conrule recipe I'm missing that willachieve this?-- Paul Nagai

What is thexpath equivalent of FOSI #CONTENT? I need to save an element's #PCDATA and any tags. Not PIs, although FOSI probably would ignore them.The SGML doc has the following. Note that and <brk> are singletons.<title>Lorem ipsum<brk>dolor sit amet</title>In the FOSI, precedingsibling is trying to save the <title> element's #CONTENT. The FOSI had the following, which worked until <brk> was added to the title:<e-i-c gi="a">>...><att>><fillval attname="following-sibling::title[1]/text()" attloc="#XPATH"fillcat="savetext" fillchar="conrule"/">><charsubset>><savetext textid="title.txt">>...>>When <brk> is added in the title, #PCDATA is captured up to but not including the <brk> tag.Here is what I've tried, and the results:following-sibling::title[1]/text() captures the content up to but not including the <brk> tag.following-sibling::title[1]/node() ditto.following-sibling::title[1

I have a table with cells that have a lot of data in it. When the doc is published/previewed some of the cells data runs into the footer, and got lost when printed or composed to pdf. Is there a work around to fix this problem? I have read the Help file about the problems of deep content splitting. I have tried everything, and still could not get the data to publish correctly on a page. I am hoping that the Arbotext developers resolve this issue in future release as this problem was inherited since day 1. Any suggestions or recommendation to resolve the issue that I have is greatly appreciated. Tuyen -

Hi all, how do i know where arbortext editor is going to hypenate my line? im creating a table, with 'long' text (already the absolute minimal letters)and this text is just chopped off in ran-dom fash-ion, mak-ing rea-ding an-noying.Entering blank spaces to compensate for breaking, does not help much, as the effect is only seen after a preview is published.(our company does not make use of AT styler.)any help MUCH appreciated, Thank you, have a great weekend!Ed

In the Editor manual ist says you can access scripts out of the Styler using Xpath with one of the following expressions:- _js:eval()- _acl_eval()It also supports an example for starting a Jscript ( _js:eval("new Date().getFullYear()")), which works out just fine.My problem now is, that I just can´t figure out how to call a function, which needs to be deliverd a parameter.Anyone?To substantiate my problem:I don´t know how to deliver a parameter that is taken out of the document, which ist to be styled. For example I want to deliver an attribute out of the root element to the function and return a different string depending on the actual attribute.Nachricht geändert durch Daniel Thursfield

I have newly installed Arbortext Architect 5.4 on my Windows 7 PC. When I try to compile a DTD, I get the follow error:Dtgen.exe Parser Error:While parsing file P:\Production_Delivery_clone\5096F-CV6D0P0\5096F-CV6aP0.dtd:Cannot find file called markitx. Is it in the currently active directory(err:1 line:58 pos;1857)Compile failed - rc=32Any clues?Thanks!

Hello everyone,We have a situation where a "00" is outputting in the edit view in indices. First, this wasn't the case in 5.3, but we're seeing it in 6.0. If anyone has a clue on that, I would appreciate it.If not, we'd like to suppress this gentext in when in the indices. The gentext is coming from an ACL function and not from the FOSI stylesheet. However, when globally setting gentext=off it suppresses, but so does all the gentext in the doc.Is there a way to suppress gentext in the edit window based on context or current tag? I've tried several things in ACL, but no go thus far. Looking for other ideas.Thanks,Jeff

Good day all,I have attached the Consolidated Isodraw shortcut keys. Kindly once review them and apply.I think it will be very useful.Any changes kindly update it in the forum itself. Thanks.

Say what?With Clay and Brandon's help, I am now successfully generating links from anamespaced element, atidlm:resourcepair. However, if these links resideinside of elements that get savetexted and usetexted, the link is outputtwice.For example in most contexts:<atidlm:resourcepair ....=" tons=" of=" attributes=" live=" here=" ...="/>Gets turned into:<loc id="xxxx" role="table" type="link_with_title" title="titlegoeshere"/">Which is subsequently formatted as a cross reference ... everything worksas designed. The link is live, highlighted properly, and contains all theparts and pieces it should.If, however, that <atidlm:resourcepair..../> lives inside of an element,the content of which gets stored for later output, I end up with two links.The first is "right" and the second one has the right text, is not entirelylive (only the ID/IDREF or numbering portion is live) or entirelyhighlighted (same bits highlighted as live),Any thoughts on what happens to links that are sav

With Arbortext 6.0, Editor now supports Schematron validations. However, with the propriety configurations that are part of Arbortext Editor, it's only possible to use a single Schematron for a doctype. This is ludicrous for a complex DTD. Schematron is specifically designed to be flexible and allow for validating partial aspects of a XML instance. Developing XML for different outputs create different kinds of errors to be checked. Writing a single Schematron attempting to throw every possible validation scenario will only confuse writers. Writers need the ability to select different Schematrons based on the validation needs of the current document instance they are creating. Can the Schematron implementation be changed to allow for multiple Schematrons for single doctype?

We do a lot of drawings with cables and I'm attempting to do a macro that creates a cable from a single bezier by using the parallel paths function, joining the beziers, then adding white fill so that several cables can be put on top of each other realistically.Trouble is, I can't find anything in documentation that adds fill to selected items. And when I use record macro to see what it does, nothing is recorded when I add or change fills - does this mean it can't be done in a macro?

Review and use the attached Consolidated ISODRAW SHORTCUT KEYS.

Good day All,I've created animations using Isodraw cadprocess. Is it possible to play the animation in Isodraw itself or it is mandatory to have ISOVIEW?Thanks for your cooperation.

Hi,Arbortext 5.4 is the platform.I want to define a macro/key/right click menu option (doesn't matter which) to run a process against some XML files, including the one I currently have open in Arbortext. Specifically, I want to run part of my org's internal publishing toolchain. This toolchain requires an exclusive lock on every XML file it uses as input, and as it's not under my control, this can't be changed. So I need to temporarily wrest the file out of Arbortext's hands, run the piece of toolchain, and then open the file back up in Arbortext. This has provided after-dinner entertainment for me for several days, and I still haven't solved it.If you have any ideas on this, please let me know.What I've found so far:1) window_close() doesn't. It's documented that it doesn't actually close the window (it MINIMIZES it, making one wonder why it was not called window_minimize()), but still.2) doc_close(current_doc()) does not seem to actually fully close the file, from Arbortext's point o

Adepters,I am trying to create a pdf file using Print Composer in batch mode. After looking through some older threads I was able to use:Method 1:epic.exe -c "print" test.sgm (this results in a pdf output but prompts the user for the filename)Method 2:epic.exe -c "print printer='Adobe PDF' file=test.ps" test.sgm (this suppresses the filename prompt, but outputs postcript)Is there a way to use the second method (suppressing user input) but output directly to pdf (bypassing the need to use distiller)?Thanks in advance!
