Deploying Stylesheets That Generate FO

When your stylesheet is complete, the process for creating a final document, such as a PDF document, from an XML document is as follows:

1. Apply a stylesheet to an XML document. This results in an XML document that contains XSL FO.
2. Run a FOP, such as Apache's FOP, and use the generated XML as input.

Example

You can accomplish both steps with a single invocation of FOP on the command line. For example:

java -cp "C:\Program Files\StylusStudio\bin\Plugins\Fop\fop.jar;" 
org.apache.fop.apps.Fop -xml ..\VideoCenter\videos.xml -xsl 
catalog.xsl -pdf multimediacatalog.pdf
               

            

Replace C:\Program Files\StylusStudio with the name of the directory in which Stylus Studio is installed.

XML Spell Checker

The Stylus Studio Spell Checker is integrated with our intuitive XML Text Editor. It highlights typographical errors as you type and lets you easily search, replace, and build custom dictionaries.

Translating X12 Documents to XML

The X12 to XML Converter is a built-in function of the adapter library. The XML that is generated is well commented and indented, and can be used anywhere XML is normally used — with XML Schemas, XSLT, XQuery, etc.

Support for the Saxon XQuery Processor

Stylus Studio's XQuery tools feature integrated support for the Saxon SA 8.7.3 XQuery and XSLT processor so you can Edit, Debug and Run XQuery using Saxon. Java code generation support lets you deploy Saxon XQuery applications with just one click.

SQL Server Tools

SQL Server Tools in Stylus Studio simplify working with relational and XML data including exporting data from a SQL Server database into XML and importing XML data back into SQL Server. Supports Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005
