Publishing S1000D content
From Contenta S1000D, you can publish S1000D content to PDFs, IETPs, or the file system.
Contenta S1000D Publish supports the following outputs:
| IETP Viewer | PDF Publishing Engine | File System |
|---|---|---|
| LiveContent S1000D or LiveContent S1000D Mobile for iPad or Android tablet. | XPP | Exports referenced modules and graphics from the CSDB to the file system, resolves references, and applies applicability as needed. |
| Third-party IETP viewer (via Contenta S1000D publish to the file system) | Third-party PDF publishing engine (via Contenta S1000D publish to the file system) |
For a list of graphic/multimedia formats currently supported by LiveContent S1000D (for IETPs) and XPP (for PDFs), see Contenta S1000D and LiveContent S1000D Cross-product graphics and multimedia support.
Contenta S1000D includes a publish configuration file with properties that may be configured as needed. Two of these properties, LiveContent_GraphicFormats and XPP_GraphicFormats, list graphic formats; however, these properties usually do not need to be modified because the delivered file contains the supported graphic types.
- In a pre-Issue 4.0 Publication Module, use an
actreftag. - In an Issue 4.0 or later Publication Module, use an
applicCrossRefTableReftag.
When you publish, the referenced applicability DMs (ACT, PCT, CCT) are exported along with other referenced DMs such as BREX DMs, CIR DMs (in Issue 4.1 and later), and cross-referenced DMs.
Issue 4.1 and later only:
|
Contenta S1000D also enables you to resolve CIR references in Issues 4.1 and later. By default, the S1000D Publish tool resolves each type of CIR reference in a particular context, such as the Preliminary Requirements section of Procedural, Process, Fault, or Checklist DMs. Refer to the CIR reference resolve default behavior topic in this section for detailed information.
