Hello: I have recorded a macro in Arbortext Editor and I would like to customize an icon and place it on my toolbar. I used to do that all the time in ProEngineer but can't seem to find out how to do it in Arbortext. Is it possible?
Thanks

setting twowaymetadatarule on SIM publishing
Hello,
I added twowaymetadatarule setting in techinfo.bcf;
<twowaymetadatarule attrname="outputclass" bndryelemname="topic" metadata="WC_LIFECYCLE_ATTR" metadataelemname="shortdesc" mode="toxml"/>
<twowaymetadatarule attrname="outputclass" bndryelemname="concept" metadata="WC_LIFECYCLE_ATTR" metadataelemname="shortdesc" mode="toxml"/>
<twowaymetadatarule attrname="outputclass" bndryelemname="task" metadata="WC_LIFECYCLE_ATTR" metadataelemname="shortdesc" mode="toxml"/>
<twowaymetadatarule attrname="outputclass" bndryelemname="reference" metadata="WC_LIFECYCLE_ATTR" metadataelemname="shortdesc" mode="toxml"/>
Then I put it on APE Server.
It works fine on APEWorker publishing (publish one topic), however it doesn't work when I tried SIMWorker publishing (publish publication structure).
Does anyone know towowaymetadatarule works on SIS publishing or not?
Best Regards,

Styler 6.1 monocrome publish
Hello,
My customer wants to publish in grayscale PDF for printing. I configured .appcf file below;
<PDFMode color="mono" defaultLanguage="" fastWebView="no"/>
<Compatibility layers="yes" tagging="inherit">
<PDF level="1.7"></PDF>
</Compatibility>
<ColorProfile defaultCMYK="" defaultGray="" defaultRGB=""/>
<Images epsDPI="600" linked="original"/>
.....
The output looks good (=monocrome) from my eyes, however it includes all CMYK colors when customer analyze it in Adobe Acrobat.
Is it possible to publish true grayschale PDF ?
*I use Styler 6.1 M030.

The problem about paste table in office word for the customized DTD.
Dear all,
I meet a confusing problem.
When I using the Arbortext default DTD, such as topic, concept, we can paste table in office word to the xml, and it can generate the <table>
automatically.
But I customized some DTD, and create the topic, when I paste table in office word, not only table, also text, the Arbortext Editor will promet "agettext: Msgid not found in message file: CopyPaste failed to convert clipboard". Every time paste...
After I changed the pastesource preference to mif;rtf;txt (delete the htm), it didn't promet "agettext: Msgid not found in message file: CopyPaste failed to convert clipboard" again, but still I can't paste table in office word to xml. it will generate the <p>.
Did I lost some setting, or steps, or some check for the DTD? Could you give me any tips please?
Thanks!

Will the image resolution ratio change when I change the image attribute width or scale?
Dear all,
We konw that the dpi basically is used to calculate the print size of a given image. When we change the image resolution ratio, for example, from 96dpi to 200dpi, when I pubish the PDF document, the size of the image are different. The 200dpi's is larger.
Then I have some questions:
1. When I publish the PDF, did the the image resolution ratio change? If changed, how much has changed? I'm not sure if some problem in my understanding of basic concepts.But I print the PDF and office word document for the image, I think the image in word document is clearer.
2.When I change the image attribute width or scale, the size of the image will change also. Did the the image resolution ratio change? Can I control the dpi by these attribute, how?
3.The custom want the image resolution ratio in PDF is 200dpi, and also want a width 70mm, is this possible? How can I achieve it? I don't h
4. By the way, this is for PDF, how about for RTF, Web, or html?
Could you give me any tips please? Your assistance will be highly appreciated in this regard.
Thanking you!

ISODraw requires internet connectivity
While attempting to start ISODraw, an error is generated, "License request failed for feature ISODraw". This error occurs when the PC is not connected to any network. Once connected to a network, ISODraw successfully starts. The license that is used is a node lock license.
Is there any method to have ISODraw start when not connected to a network? Connectivity is an issue when at sea for the Navy. Any help would be appreciated.

I have been looking for how to create and use macros with ACL fuctions in Arbortext Help centre but it seems it doesn't have much information about it.
I have found the description of each ACL function in "Arbortext Command Language Reference", however, it didin't really say where and how to create .mcf files and where to use it.
Can you please suggest me where to find the information? or give me instruction for how to create and use macros with ACL?
Kind regards,

No print preview window even though preview process complete
We have a user that is trying to generate a print preview using APE (and AE 6.0M060) but is getting no preview window.
She receives the message below the command line that it is publishing and eventually gets the 'Preview processing complete' message, yet no print preview window pops up.
All her environment variables are good, preferences are good, everything appears normal.
Is there a Windows setting that could be blocking it from appearing? Ideas?
Thanks all.

Public Identifier
Long story short - no one here has used Arbortext for a while. Our server was moved. We reinstalled on two compters. When someone opens a previously created file (6.0 M090) we get: [A15014] Unable to resolve the document type referenced by the public identifier "-//USA-DOD//DTD38784STD-BV7//EN" in the catalog path.
We have two computers that did not need to be reinstalled. All is well on them. That tells me there is something on those two computers that the newly reinstalled computers are not seeing. How do I find what it is, where it is and where to find it? I copied all the doctypes from the working computers to the non-working (I think I got them all - at least all the ones listed on the error message).
Did I mention I am very (very) new to Arbortext? But not totally computer illiterate. Please help me get out of this deadlock.
Thank you,

Change number in page footers
Hi,
The setting of change bars in text is OK, but I do not know how to set change numbers (levels) in page footers.
The change number is given in <change> element or 'level' attribute in various elements.
We use Editor/Styler 6.1.
Thank you very much

Title and landscaped table and image on the same page?
I have a topic where I would like the image landscaped. We have modified the style sheet to give us this capability by setting outputclass to landscape. I functions and turns the table with the image in it landscape. The issue is that it does not keep it on the same page as the title. Is there an easy way to make this work? See attached files. I can rotate the image in IsoDraw and have the table at the bottom of the image. I think it would look better rotated.
Thanks

Error: You last used the ptc server with an older version of AE
Has anyone received this message? If so, how do I resolve it? We are using AE 6.0 with Windchill 10.1 M040. A user opened her AE this morning and received the message above. The error message says to clear the cache in order to connect to Windchill. She has done this but is still unable to work. She cleaned her workspace as well. Do I need to go into the actual cache folder and remove the files? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks
