Does your application support custom/bespoke XML schemas?
Yes, but XSD 1.0 only, not XSD 1.1.
1) Quick and dirty way. Send this person a document template along with
the XSD and the CSS stylesheet (both found in the mydoc_files/ folder
in the example below).
The document template could look like this:
---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="mydoc_files/mydoc.css"?>
<mydoc xmlns="http://www.acme.com/ns/mydoc";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.acme.com/ns/mydoc
mydoc_files/mydoc.xsd">
<title></title>
<paragraph></paragraph>
</mydoc>

OR
2) Recommended method. Teach XMLmind XML Editor about your custom XSD by
writing a very simple configuration file for XXE" (a ".xxe" file).
See "Writing a configuration file for XXE",
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/config_file.html
Method (1) and (2) take about the same amount of time and efforts given
the fact that most of the time will be spent writing the CSS stylesheet.
