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.


If you send me (mailto:[email protected]) a .zip or .tar.gz archive containing:

* A simple map file, possibly making use of your condition processing attributes (e.g. product, platform, audience, etc).

* One or more topic files, some of them possibly making use of your condition processing attributes.

* Your DITAVAL file.

then I should be able to tell you what's going wrong.

If you cannot do that then there is *no* *way* for me to help you, even if you upgrade to latest version of XMLmind XSL-FO Converter.




* Please advised if we have to make any change in our style sheets for newer 
version of XMLMInd.

In principle the answer is no. However I have no idea about the changes you made to our stock DITA XSLT 2.0 stylesheets.



* Is this the latest version?

Latest version has been released yesterday. It's version 5.2.0. See http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/changes.html




* What is the cost of this version per user?

Product fc-desk --XMLmind XSL-FO Converter for Java
Desktop License--- costs USD340 per user.

See Price List -- http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/price_list.html



Will it include stylesheet or dtds updates too?

XSLT 2.0 stylesheet updates, yes; DTD updates, no (DITA 1.2 is a stable OASIS standard).





Many thanks for your support.

Best regards,
Dimple

We are using XMLMind XSL Utility 4.6.0

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.




and we need a demo of how you can create DITAVAL

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.



and apply profiling while building outputs. Please advise what is the
procedure for getting this training and the estimated cost.

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").
