Synchronizing the configuration changes to XMetaL

These are optional steps to check that the configuration, apart from SDL LiveContent Architect, is working

Procedure

  1. Start XMetaL.
  2. Choose SDL LiveContent > View to synchronize.
  3. When synchronization is finished, check that your DTD is present under the Program Files\XMetaL {XMetaLVersion}\Author\DITA\DITA_OT_DTD folder.
  4. Check that the DTD configuration files and dita_xac_catalog_specialized.xml are present and correct under Program Files\XMetaL {XMetaLVersion}\Author\DITA\XACS.
  5. Check that the dita_specialized.soc is present and correct under Program Files\XMetaL {XMetaLVersion}\Author\Rules.
  6. After synchronization it is best to restart XMetaL, so that the program is initialized with the latest (synchronized) configuration.

What to do next

Some additional steps might still be needed to, for example, get the XMetaL client publishing to work. Refer to the XMetaL documentation for more information.
