I'm sorry but I cannot reproduce this problem. Please do what follows: [1] Delete by hand everything under "XXE_user_preferences_dir/custom/" (but not the directory itself). [2] Restart XXE. [3] Open a document of the wanted type (DocBook or DocBook 5 or Simplified DocBook) because each document type has its own set of customizations. [4] *NEW in 3.6.1* Check "Use the profiling stylesheets" in "Options|Customize Configuration|Document Conversion Preferences". This is done once for all. [5] For example, specify attribute "condition" to value "foo" for a <para> found in the document being edited. [6] Use "Options|Customize Configuration|Change Document Conversion Parameters". [a] Select for example "Convert to PDF, PostScript". Note that each type of conversion has its own set of parameters. [b] Use button "Add" to add parameter "profile.condition" with value "bar". [c] Click OK. [7] Convert the document to PDF and you'll *not* see in the PDF the <para> having attribute condition="foo". [8] Now remove attribute "condition" or set it to "bar" and convert the document to PDF another time. This time, you'll see in the PDF, the <para> having attribute condition="bar".
