Hi All, I'd want to seek for assistance if anyone knows why when I drag and drop the sgm file into arbortext, xml codes appear instead of text/tags. This is a Ukrainian language.

In an XML data module opened in Arbortext Editor, when scroll down to a graphic part, it triggers an error “Can not find or start IsoView Server. Error -1”. Does anyone know why? When I changed the view to Creo, the graphic shows up, but Arbortext Editor won’t recognize any hotspots from the graphic, thus I don’t want to use Creo View.

 Thanks for looking.  🙂 I have a laptop running a fresh install of Arbortext 8.2.2.1.  As in, freshly installed this morning.  I also have a desktop running Arbortext 8.1.2.0. The new install of 8.2.2.1 will not render .eps files.  It will render SVG files, but not .eps. View Graphics is checked. Arbortext 8.2.2.1 does not report the graphics as missing if I do a completeness check. If I double-click an eps file icon in Arbortext, it opens the .eps file in Adobe Illustrator.    I copied the file set with .eps art over to my desktop, running 8.1.2.0,  which renders the .eps files just fine.  I tried a couple of other file sets using .eps art with 8.2.2.1, and it does not render .eps files from any of those publications.  Is 8.2.2.1 specifically broken?  Or am I missing a setting somewhere? Thanks in advance,  Dan

Hi, Next to the PDF export from Arbortext Styler we want to export HTML manuals.We succeeded to publish HTML manuals. Per manual a folder structure with some CSS files, graphics and a lot of HTML files (one HTML file per topic created in Arbortext). Also the navigation tree at the left side of each HTML page is working fine. Linking from one HTML page to another is also working fine.But, we are missing a search feature that search in all HTML files of the manual. How do we best implement such a search feature? Kind regards,Johan Van DyckeDocumentation Barco

Hi, I am having the exact same issue going from Editor v7 on one computer, to 8.2 on another computer. It gave me error A15014 and couldnt  blah blah blah "-//arbortext//DTD XSL fo-result//EN" "xsl-fo.dtd". I checked the file structures and they look the same. So I am at a loss at what to do. So I updated arbortext  (via tools>preference>catalog path) to the xsl-fo folder (referenced in the catalog file in Arbortext Editor 8.2/doctypes) Now I am getting error A15000 Unable to load document type due to errors parsing DTD"C:\program files\PTC\Arbortext Editor 8.2\doctypes\xsl-fo.dtd" Anyway, all this to say, I think the catalog file is pointing to the right xsl-fo.dtd but not sure why its not being picked up. Update 1I removed the direct path to the xsl-fo dtd file to resolve A15000.I also shuffled around the order of the paths for the catalog. There are 3 normal ones that come with the installation. I copied the file paths from the old computer to the

We're doing an upgrade from Arbortext 8.1 to 8.2 and use a floating license on the peserver. From the help text (https://support.ptc.com/help/arbortext/r8.2.1.0/en/index.html#page/PE%2Fpeinstall%2Fpe1004.html%23) I can read that I need a locked license for 8.2. I can also read that I cannot use my old license if it's used for 8.1. However, in the license portal it says 8.2 under revision.So my questions are:Do I need to change my Arbortext publishing engine license from floating to locked?Do I need to get a new license for  Arbortext publishing engine, or can I use the one I have since it says "revision 8.2"?Thanks!

Hello everybody, can somebody help me? I'm using Arbortext 8.2 but can't preview or export PDFs because the PTC Arbortext Publishing Engine isn't configured. Somebody can provide me steps on how to fix this error.

Hi Folks,I am working on some XML that uses XSL-FO engine to create a PDF. In particular, this stylesheet is capable of building a glossary that is automatically inserted into the <glossary> element in my XML doc. The stylesheet that I use calls up 3 files;a stylesheet that changes the appearance of the glossary,a file that contains all the glossary terms and definitions, anda transformation XSL. The XSL file fills the <glossary> element in my working XML with <glossterm>s found in said XML. It matches the glossterms in my XML with the 'repo' (in the point above). Currently, I am trying to build the same PDF using Styler (APP engine). The XML I am working withWhere the glossary is inserted:book- section-- title glossary-- <glossary> Entries to populate glossarysection- para <glossterm>XYZ</glossterm> What I need to get in PDF:GlossaryXYZ ----- XYZ Definition ------Could someone help me with this?
