Copy a template XML file for your document type and edit it to configure publication configuration directives.
Procedure
- Navigate to the templates\conf\ subfolder of the LiveContent S1000D home directory.
- Find the template configuration file for your specification, say, S1000D_template.xml.
- Copy this file to the conf subdirectory of your application data folder, and rename it to the name of your publication. For example, after copying, rename S1000D_template.xml to MyPub.xml
- Open the configuration file and configure all of the required configuration directives, as well as any optional ones you wish to configure. To configure a directive, enter the following inside the
<application> section of the file:
<configitem name="DIRECTIVE">
<value>VALUE</value>
</configitem>
where DIRECTIVE is the name of the directive, and VALUE is the value of that directive.
Whenever your directive value is a directory path, make sure that:
- you use absolute paths, not relative paths
- you use backslashes on a Windows system and forward slashes on a Linux system
- your directory path contains no hash character (
#).
