In my answer, I'll assume that you are interested in DocBook. Most generic method: the imagedata DocBook element has a fileref attribute. Specify a value for it. [1] Insert an image container such as figure or a mediaobject. [2] Click on the image placeholder to select the imagedata element. [3] Using the Attribute tool, type the *URL* of your image (e.g. file:/c:/Geocap/Documentation/doc/html/images/tutorial/foo.gif) as the value of the fileref attribute. This is described here (using an XHTML example): http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/user/tutorial_basics.html#d0e1985 Note that the Attribute tool has a "Browse" button to help you specifying a filename or URL as the value of an attribute. Please right click on it and select the proper options: Absolute, open, file, URL before actually using it. There is another, more convenient method, described here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/user/being_productive.html#drop_graphics_files > 2) How can I load my stylesheets?

Free Standard Edition cannot convert XML to HTML, PDF, etc. However if you want test this function, please consult this page: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/evaluate.html (If you want to convert XML to PDF, make sure to also install the FOP or the RenderX XEP plug-in. For this, simply use Options|Install Add-ons.) > 3) I use Task Procedure Step tags a lot. Is there anyway I can get these > to pop up on the top menu bar so I automatically can generate them? > Sure. XMLmind XML Editor is highly extensible but is not designed to let end users extend it by using dialog boxes. For us, this is the job of an external or internal consultant (AKA local guru). This is not difficult or technically challenging to do, but it takes a long time because the local guru will have tons of documents to read. Customizing and extending XMLmind XML Editor is possible by creating or tweaking configuration files. See "XMLmind XML Editor - Configuration and Deployment" http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/index.html --> If you want to add a button to the DocBook toolbar or a menu item to the DocBook menu, please read this section: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/customizing.html The file which contains the definition of the stock DocBook toolbar is: XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/toolBar.incl Read it and you'll probably guess how it works. The stock DocBook menu is specified in: XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/common.incl --> If you want to customize the way a DocBook document is converted to HTML, PDF, etc, you'll also have to read this section http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/customizing.html The file which contains the definition of the stock DocBook conversion commands is: XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/xslMenu.incl
