HI Hussein,

I tried the method that you described with XMLmind XSL Utility v4.6.0, but 
unfortunately it is not making any difference in the output. I then downloaded 
the trial version of XMLmind XSL Utility 5.1.0 and followed the same procedure, 
This time XMLMInd is giving stylesheet error. 

* Please advised if we have to make any change in our style sheets for newer 
version of XMLMInd.
* Is this the latest evrsion?
* What is the cost of this version per user? Will it include stylesheet or dtds 
updates too?

Many thanks for your support.

Best regards,
Dimple

I'm sorry but XMLmind XSL Utility v4.6.0 is no longer supported and I don't 
remember if this old version behaves like v5.1.0, which I'll use to explain you 
"XMLmind XSL Utility and DITA profiling" in this email.

A DITAVAL file is a simple, short, XML file created using any XML or text 
editor.

The syntax of a DITAVAL file is documented here:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/os/spec/common/about-ditaval.html#ditaval

You'll find attached to this email a sample DITAVAL file that we use for one of 
our documents.

I'm sorry but our company, XMLmind, is purely a software developer. This means 
that, unfortunately, we are not organized to make demos or to train our 
customers. All I can do for you is explain things in this email.



The procedure for applying a DITAVAL file (profiling) while building outputs 
can be described as follows:

Let's suppose you have created file "C:\dita\filters_1.ditaval".

1) Start XMLmind XSL Utility.

2) Select the conversion specification to which you want to add profiling. 
Let's suppose you have selected "ditaToPDF". See attached screenshot 
xslutil_main_window.png.

3) Click "Edit". This displays a dialog box.

4) Select the "DITA" tab.

5) Use the "Browse" button to specify the location of your DITAVAL file in the 
"Conditional processing profile" text field. For example, choose 
"C:\dita\filters_1.ditaval". See attached screenshot 
edit_dialog_box_dita_tab.png.

6) Click "OK" to close the "Edit" dialog box.

All this is done once for all. From now, when you'll convert a DITA document to 
PDF, "C:\dita\filters1.ditaval" will be automatically applied.




Of course, if you have created another DITAVAL file 
"C:\dita\filters_2.ditaval" and want to apply it, you'll have to repeat 
procedure steps 1) to 6).

However after using "Edit" to specify "C:\dita\filters_2.ditaval", using 
the "Description" tab, you may give a *different* *name* to the 
conversion, say "ditaTOPDF_2".

This way you'll be able to quickly switch between "ditaToPDF" (has 
"C:\dita\filters_1.ditaval") and "ditaTOPDF_2" (has 
"C:\dita\filters_2.ditaval").
