Arbortext Editor only: This task explains how to export a module read-only from SDL Contenta S1000D for review. This option is available only for SDL Contenta Web clients.
Before you begin
SDL Contenta Web clients only: The Contenta Editor Extensions and the Contenta S1000D Arbortext Editor plug-in must be installed on your client.
SDL Contenta Web clients only: In the top banner of your desktop, click Preferences to specify a path to your checkout directory.
If the module you are exporting has references to other modules, the referenced modules are not exported at the same time.
Procedure
- In SDL Contenta S1000D, navigate to the DM, PM, or SCPM that you want to view.
- Click Tools then click Arbortext Fetch.
- If your module contains graphics, you may be prompted if you want to export them. Respond as you deem appropriate. See Exporting and displaying graphics when you check out a module.
Note: If you check Do not prompt me again, your graphics export preference are saved, and you are not asked if you want to export graphics the next time you check out a module for editing or export a module for viewing.
In most cases, Arbortext Editor launches automatically and you can skip the next step.
- If Arbortext did not launch automatically (for example, Arbortext Editor is not installed on your SDL Contenta Web client, or the launchArbortext AppData setting is set to no), from your checkout directory, open the module in Arbortext Editor.
- Review the module in Arbortext.
- Close the module in Arbortext.
