This section indeed describes how to customize the XSLT style
sheets used in the "Convert Document" submenu. However it describes how 
to do so manually, that is, the hard way.

The simple way is described here:

http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/customizeConfigurationMenu.html#editConversionStylesheetsAction

Basically you just need to use menu item "Options|Customize 
Configuration|Customize Document Conversion Stylesheets" and then use 
the corresponding dialog box.

Note that now you have created a custom XSLT style sheet, you'll just 
have to select it by:

1) Use "Options|Customize Configuration|Customize Document Conversion 
Stylesheets".

2) Select the output format of custom XSLT style sheet your in the 
dialog box. For example, select "Convert to PDF, PostScript" if you 
intend to use your custom XSLT style sheet to generate PDF.

3) Click "Add" to add your existing custom XSLT style sheet. Note that 
adding a custom XSLT style sheet automatically selects it in the 
combobox and thus, ``activates'' it. (Notice that the "XSLT stylesheet" 
frame contains a combobox showing the name of the currently 
``activated'' XSLT style sheet.)

You'll have to do 2) and 3) for all the output formats to which your 
custom XSLT style sheet applies. For example, a custom XSLT style sheet 
which generates XSL-FO may be used for PDF but also RTF, .docx, etc.
