--> If you are not particularly interested in editing XML using XMLmind XML Editor, you'll be better served by XMLmind XSL Utility. More information in http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_utility.html Download it from http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/downloadperso.shtml --> If in addition to editing XML using XMLmind XML Editor, you want to convert your documents to PDF, then please proceed as follows: (This answer assumes that you are currently using XMLmind XML Editor Personal Edition. As explained in http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/persoedition.html, this free edition has no "Convert Document" menus.) [1] Get an evaluation key and install it in your copy of XMLmind XML Editor Personal Edition as explained in http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/evaluate.html [2] Once your Evaluation Edition is running, use "Options|Preferences, Install Add-ons" and select the add-on called "Apache FOP 1.x XSL-FO processor plug-in". Also accept all suggested additional add-ons. [3] Restart XMLmind XML Editor Evaluation Edition, then [a] Open your document in XMLmind XML Editor. [b] If this document is a DocBook one, select menu item "DocBook|Convert Document|Convert to PDF". More info in: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/docbook/docbook_menu.html#docbook_convert_menu If this document is a DITA map, select menu item "Map|Convert Document|Convert to PDF". More info in: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dita/help-2.html#map_menu If this document is a DITA map, select menu item "Topic|Convert Document|Convert to PDF". More info in: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dita/help.html#topic_menu If this document is an XHTML page, select menu item "XHTML|Convert Document|Convert to PDF". More info in: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/xhtml/menu.html#xhtml_convert_menu Note that if your document is not a DocBook 4 or 5, DITA 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2, XHTML 1.0, 1.1, 5.0 file, then, out of the box, you'll not be able to convert your document to PDF using XMLmind XML Editor. -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List xmleditor-support@xmlmind.com http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
