Charles,

I have taken a look at several XKS files and have determined that they are
nothing more than XML, encoded in UTF-16 Big-Endian format.

If you have an appropriate editor, you should be able to create your own.

Here is the structure --

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-1.6" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE XKS
PUBLIC  "-//IBM//BookManager XKS 0.1//EN"
"http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/df/dtd";>
<XKS>
<SHELFHEADER NAME="filename">
<TITLE>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</TITLE>
<AUTHOR>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</AUTHOR>
<UPDATE DATETIME="ccyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss"></UPDATE>
</SHELFHEADER>
<DOCUMENT DOCID="publication number">
<INSTANCE DOCOBJTYPE="application/pdf" NAME="filename" VALIDATE="NO">
<TITLE>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</TITLE>
<UPDATE DATETIME="ccyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss"></UPDATE>
</INSTANCE>
</DOCUMENT>
</XKS>

The specification for NAME in the SHELFHEADER section should be replaced by
the 8-character filename of the XKS file, omitting the filename extension
and retaining the double quotes, while the settings of the TITLE, AUTHOR,
and UPDATE sections are self-explanatory.  I do NOT have any information in
respect to length limitations for the TITLE and AUTHOR settings.

The DOCUMENT section should be repeated for each document to be included in
the bookshelf.

The specification for DOCID in the DOCUMENT section should be replaced by
the IBM publication number, in the format "xxxx-xxxx-nn", retaining the
double quotes, NAME should be replaced by the 8-character filename of the
PDF file, omitting the filename extension and retaining the double quotes,
while the settings of the TITLE and UPDATE sections are self-explanatory.
Again, I do NOT have any information in respect to length limitations for
the TITLE settings.
