* If you use XMLmind XML Editor, several clean ways to do that are
documented here:
XMLmind XML Editor - Configuration and Deployment
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/index.html
However this requires having some IT personnel to organize this. I mean
this cannot be the responsibility of a technical writer to do it.
However, it's always possible to use the following quick and dirty trick:
1) You, Mary, configure XMLmind XML Editor to your likings. Let's
suppose you have customized the DITA bookmap configuration by using the
various dialog boxes of XMLmind XML Editor.
The customizations you have created this way are found in the following
folder:
%APPDATA%\XMLmind\XMLEditor\custom\DITA BookMap
More information about XMLmind XML Editor user preferences folder in
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/anatomy_of_a_config.html#xxe_user_preferences_dir
2) Tell you coworkers to copy verbatim the above folder to their own
%APPDATA%\XMLmind\XMLEditor\custom\
folder.
* If you use XMLmind XSL Utility, you cannot do it cleanly without
switching to XMLmind XSL Server, which is the server variant of XMLmind
XSL Utility.
See http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_server.html
Of course, it's always possible to use the same trick as for XMLmind XML
Editor.
XMLmind XSL Utility user preferences are found in:
%APPDATA%\XMLmind\FOConverter\xslutil.conversions
More information about XMLmind XSL Utility user preferences folder in
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/_distrib/xslutil/doc/help/com.xmlmind.guiutil.PreferencesEditorDialog.html
* If you use ditac, suffice to use command-line option -o and to copy
the option file on a file share for use by everyone.
