Export the catalog paragraph ESD

Hello all and thanks in advance for any help.

I am currently working on the import of XML in Framemaker. I'm fairly new to Framemaker, but after reading the technical paper on XSLT and structured devleopment I think I my mind around it.

So my thought is take our complex xml and import with an XSLT transformation to a paragraph/character basically style structure that I have then 'apply' a DSP with rules in shape. I worked through some examples, and this doesn't seem to be a problem.

My arrises problem that these documents be published in Framemaker, I have a catalog huge paragraph. Is there a way to export these to a DSP, so when I import the XML file I can convert the elements in the same names as the paragraph/character style? Did I miss an easier way to do it?

We seem to have diverged at least three subjects on this thread:

1. the original since April last on the creation of an EDD in which names of components names match paragraph format.

2. referring to paragraph and character entries catalog in a DSP rather than specify explicit formatting properties

3. prevention of the replacements in structured documents.

I'll give you my late response on the first topic here and then start new discussions on the other two.

The original post asked about the import of XML in FrameMaker. The proposal was to use XSLT to transform the original XML in a form derived in which element names put matched the names of FrameMaker paragraph format. The answer was that there is no automatic way to do it.

In fact, there is an automated way:

1. create an informal document that contains at least a paragraph of each format in the paragraph catalog.

2. use the StructureTools > command to generate a Conversion Table to create a new conversion table.

3. save the table of proposed conversion and let it open.

4. from the original, use StructureTools > utilities > Structure current Document, specifying the conversion table generated to create a structured version of the document.

5. in the generated structured document, use StructureTools > Export item Catalog as ESD to create ESD desired.

The implicit question in the original message has been if using XSLT and such an ESD is a good approach. Given that the message says new edition was scheduled in FrameMaker, the answer is probably not. In many cases, the logic of the XSLT transformation can be duplicated with the logic of the context rules and level in ESD - ESD capacity is what makes FrameMaker a feasible structure editor. Implementation of the mapping of the structure of the element formatting in the file XSLT in FrameMaker is a unique, made operation FrameMaker opens the XML document. Implementation means mapping in the ESD context verification is done continuously as the writer changes the document. She recorded the writer of the need to learn that both XML formats markup conventions used for XML and FrameMaker paragraph documents. And she makes probably much more feasible to generate new XML documents edited versions.

However, there are contextual situations that can be tested in XSLT, but not an ESD. It is:

(1) put a derived feature of its descendants (a DSP can test the ancestors of the element, but not its descendants)

(2) put a feature as it is his parent to the first or last child of a particular item type (a DSP can test if an element is the first or the last child, but not whether the first or the last Para, Item, etc..)

(3) put in shape an item based on the number of items previous, there (a DSP can test if an element is the first, last, or an only child of its parent and that it precedes or follows an element of a particular type, but cannot test whether, for example, the 3rd child of its parent, or the 95th Para in a Section).

(4) the special characters within an element tests.

These restrictions were deliberately designed in FrameMaker to make feasible response interactively. Otherwise, each Assembly are likely to cause reformatting of the entire document, and the response time is not practical for an interactive tool. The issue of response time is irrelevant to XSLT, which is a discontinuous process, applied to a static document rather than one that is constantly evolving.

The above discussion that does not reject the use of XSLT as part of a request for FrameMaker. XSLT is useful when the structure of FrameMaker and XML structure do not match exactly. These cases include:

(1) the structure of FrameMaker can be simpler than the XML structure. Suppose that a business uses a DTD or a schema that is much more flexible than necessary in this particular environment accessible to the public. For example, if a drafting group has always written in a language, but the DTD requires a language attribute, XSLT can provide the value of the attribute and the writer of spare all need to be aware of the attribute. Or, if the Organization has never multi-alinea list items, they can use XSLT to a mapping between a structure such as:


     
         blah blah
     

  

in XML and simple


      blah blah
  

in FrameMaker.

(2) the exact structure of the XML element cannot be helped in FrameMaker. For example, in XML a single figure element may include both the legend of the figure and a reference to an existing graphic file:

FrameMaker requires elements separate the legend and the chart itself and cards natively in XML such as:


     
      My new grandson
  

(3) the order of items may differ in FrameMaker and XML.

(4) form Framemaker or XML of the material can be a database of document including some but not all content is extracted to produce the other form.

  • Export the catalog incl. Publication services

    Hello

    I just exported a Lightroom 5 catalog from one hard disk to another. Very well, I had all the files and images and settings, but miss me my services to publish (publish on Google Drive). When you export the catalog I scored the top folder of the page "Photos".

    I have a lot to publish folders serive why I would be grateful if someone could help me get these in my new catalog. Thanks for your help!

    Peter

    Peter, you shouldn't have re-imported the files on the disk.

    You can remove rom the catalogue and rightclick just folders in the library and select Update folder location. This will keep all your previous work intact as well as the history, etc.

  • I want to copy the files published on a second computer, do I need to export the catalog or can I just copy

    I find that I edit the files on my phone but I want the files, with their changes to reside on my desktop also.

    I had exported the folder as a catalogue, but can't think of shy, I can't just copy the folder that contains the files in RAW and XMP formats and import the folder on the desktop PC. This option seems to work as well as catalogue option.

    Any reason I should choose one way over the other?

    Use Lightroom 4.2

    Thank you

    You use the Export as Catalog method.

    There are things in the catalog that are not stored in XMP.

  • LR has been impossible to export the catalog previews and negative

    My first post in this forum.  I want to delete all of my iMac to upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard and then charge back.  First job is to "Export as catalog" all my photos (about 6000) since the Mac to an external hard drive (Maxtor OneTouch 4Plus, 450 GB of available).  I tried 6 or 7 times and each time getting a similar message - see line object.  I deleted unnecessary files, managed to get rid of unused keywords and exported 2000 odd of my previous pictures in JPEG format to archive in order to reduce the volume.  I reloaded LR and updated to 2.6.  In the export dialog box, I ticked 'Export negative files' and 'include available Previews.  Export gets to about three-quarters of the way through each time until I get the error message and I have to give up.

    Appreciate any assistance.

    All THE PHOTOS is included in your LR folder hierarchy?  If this isn't the case, then you must click the right button (or whatever the equivalent of Mac) on one of the folders in your hierarchy of LR and choose to include the Parent folder.  Once you have done this and everything copied, you can file missing just locate on a high back and you will find everything under it.  If you have not the parent folder in LR before copying, you will need to locate the missing files on each of the top-level folders.

    Once you have copied your pictures, you can rename your local copy of all THE PHOTOS to make sure that you do not accidentally, and then locate the missing folder to make sure it works on the remote location.

    Once you are satisfied with your catalog is to see all distance and when you're ready, copy your catalog and your previews and backup folders above and rename the local copy of the Lightroom to open accidentally this copy of the catalog, even once.  I copy things, instead of moving them, in case something happens, you can start over.

    If you immediately update your mac, then copy all three documents, other than iChat ones, pictures on your remote disc and open the remote catalog and find files while missing only one.  I suggest take only pictures, first of all, in case you want to continue to work on the pictures, the local copy of the catalogue will be faster, but if you're ready to upgrade, then simply make all copies at the same time.  All THE PHOTOS and excerpts will be time-consuming copies, catalog, itself, will not take very long.

  • Export the large catalog of work on laptop

    I have too large image 130 000 added on 2 internal drives 1 TB. I'm going on vacation and want to reduce, keyword and the frame rate. I've seen articles by Seth Resnick et al. on this point, even bought the book (Finally, ordered him). My idea is to export the catalog and images on a 3 TB drive and then work on them when I have free time on holiday. When I come back, I do not understand how I will update my home workstation catalog without risking it corrupts in some way that would be a huge loss (I do backups often, though). I have the idea article by Seth I can do an import from external hard disk catalog to my basic computer. But the external hard drive is a drive, and my base 2 (actually 3) readers - there will be confusion to import?  I know on the thing 'save metadata', but is it enough? Will I have to manually import folder by folder, or I can do a big import catalog when I come back from vaca? I will be shooting new suff on vaca, but importation which is the easy part - it's synchronize metadata from files older that I worry.

    In addition, my home port is a PC, my knees a Mac (although I can run LR on Bootcamped XP). Other ideas on working with these large popular catalogs. I intend ultimately on the export of my files lowest ranking to a distinct kind of catalogue of archives in order to reduce the load on LR who obviously doesn't like these big catalogs. My PC is a double Xenon 2.83, 8 GB ram XP64 with a 500 GB system drive and 3-disc 1 TB image have not attacked. My turn is a new macbook pro 2.8 4 GB of ram, etc. I will get a 2-3 to external hard drive lacie or something to transfer my files and catalogues.

    Overview sizes are now declared as standard or full size/1:1.

    I'd be inclined to not go for 1:1 for this trip, except selectively. Also, I'd be inclined to rebuild my file found together when I got home, after the removal of thousands? Ten thousand? images that have been dups or slaughter.

    Reconstruction is simple: just delete or rename * the file Previews and LR will build a new one - er, over the next fortnight in your case! It would be more interesting to learn that the difference of the size of the folder seen of a refurbished compared to the existing of your catalog 100 000 + images. In addition, the number of hours to rebuild; any show more after another.

    * If you rename the .lrcat and do not comply with the prefix of the Previews, will be also built a new. In this way, you can keep the old folder Previews if you need.

  • Export a catalog of laptop-> USB key... several subfolders handling

    I have a catalog on my laptop with a bunch of subfolders, like this:

    TRAVEL PHOTOS

    1 - London

    2 - Paris

    3 - Madrid

    ... a * group * of these!

    I am trying to export the catalog and move all the. Cr2 files on a USB key in order to merge it with another catalog and archive it on my main PC.   However, whenever I export, the catalog on the USB drive still made reference to all on the first hard disk image files, so I have a small exclamation mark errors in metadata on the thumbnails when I open the catalogue exported on HomePC.

    Lightroom's smart enough.  If I show where ONE of the images are, he finds OTHER IMAGES * in the same folder *.    It's great... but this does not solve my problem completely because there are like 18 subfolders.   I really don't have to do 18 times.

    THE QUESTION: Is it possible I can move/export entire * subtree * without having to learn Lightroom 18 times where each subdirectory is?

    Thank you!

    PS - I have NOT checked 'export negative files' because I assumed this will create DNG... and I'd rather just keep the CR2s and XMPs I already have with subfolders that I already have. (maybe I use this wrong?)

    It is exactly what you need to do.

    It won't move the RAW files, it copy to the target, USB in your case.

  • LR 2.4 will not export as catalog?

    I came across a problem that I've not seen before, where I selects a folder (3029 images) and use the option "export as catalog".

    In this case, while looking through my backups etc, to check the use of hard drive, I noticed the back in DEC 2008, I had crossed may main catalogue, which has my pictures stored in the year, date etc. folders and exported every year as an individual catalogue. That 2008 had a few weeks to run, I did not export 2008, & totally forgot about it until now.

    So, I selected my file 2008 in LR 2.4 & attempted to use the export as catalog functionality. He went through the dialogs for where to save, the file name etc, but soon after startup I get a message error "Lightroom could not export the catalog". It intrigued me?

    Note the 2008 dir is about 45 GB, 60 GB of free disc when I try to export.

    Anyone encountered this problem before?

    LR is not occupied any miniature more construction.  This can be accelerated by reducing

    the number of visible thumbnail on the screen, the bar and the hand

  • I exported a "folder in the catalog" for a few changes on the second computer. Now, how to bring safe?

    I had to modify about 700 of my pictures normally on my workshop, my office computer to another location. This is the first time I tried something like that, because I was a little afraid of something screwing. I have 6.6 LR at the workshop; LR CC at the office, on Macs from different generations. I exported only the necessary folder as a catalog, a portable external HD, as well as copies of the neg files and all available previews - perhaps unfortunately, I didn't have a smart insights.

    At the office, I copied the entire record of the external hard drive to the computer desktop (thinking that performance may be a bit faster that way), sailed to the catalog on the office and made the necessary changes. (Note: I do not think I specifically "imported" this catalog in the desktop, unless this happened automatically without my being aware.) "I hope it wasn't a mistake.) Once the work is finished, I copied the catalog folder to the external hard drive for the transport workshop, replacing the previous one with the latest version. Back at the workshop, I can navigate to this mini-catalogue of temporary and see all my recent changes made to the Agency.

    Now, I want to merge this catalogue newly published in my LR catalog main at the workshop, if everything goes well so that the workshop catalog looks like as it would if I had done the changes it. I am not sure of the import procedure exactly I should use here. Can someone guide me?

  • Cannot export the profile of calibration of camera when exporting catalogs

    I often take work and have to color calibrate the artwork using a color corrector.  The 'calibration of the camera profile' is saved in my "camera profiles.  I attached pushes a lot so when you export a catalog LR my laptop on my desk, the calibrated camera profile is not transferred. So whenever I do a manual transfer to the camera profile folder.   When can we expect the 'calibration of the camera profile' export as well as the catalogue?

    Concerning

    The way the file structure is designed, I don't expect camera profiles to be included in the catalogue. They are all grouped in the resources folder in the Lightroom folder. Lightroom chooses the profile based on the model of camera. This would require all profiles of camera must be included in the catalogue. I could be wrong, but I don't think that this is part of the Adobe development plan.

    Import and export and rendering speed depends on the CPU. The disk contributes only a negligible amount to import and export and rendering speed. You would spend more time to pass the photos that you would gain in speed.

  • Export a collection of catalog and import into the catalog of my work on my iMac, color labels are missing.

    During my project for my photography class, I have to shoot on site and edit the best photos with the model, on my MacBook. At home on my MacBook I export the collection newly created to a catalog (including negative files), copy the directory with the catalogue all the other files over the network and import the catalog into my standard catalog on my iMac. On my iMac, all the imported photos color labels went into my standard catalog, and very strange, color labels have also disappeared when I open the catalogue exported (and copied) on my iMac. Did I miss something?

    I don't think it's something to do with the copy over a network.

    My guess is that you have to look at metadata > color label set. Try to compare the settings on both computers. If they are different, a computer do not know what the other means red, yellow etc.

    The presets are only recorded in the original catalogue, not the exported catalog. However, you should be able to copy them manually to the new computer from their current location (i.e. the same folder as the original catalogue)

  • Import from another catalog - cannot select the catalog items

    I'm trying to merge a temporary catalog, I started on my laptop in my 'main' catalog - both are v5.7.1.  I exported the photos from my laptop in a directory on my NAS, including raw files.  I see the catalog so all the 5,000 or if raw files it.

    Next step - import catalog in my catalog 'main' - where the problem occurs.  I can't select all items in the catalogue - they have dimmed, and I can't click on it to select it.  See screen capture below:

    LR Catalog import err.png

    I have reason to believe that it is a matter of import rather than an export problem, because if I copy the exported catalog to a location not connected to the network and that you open in LR, I see pictures of 5000-ish.  I can't merge via import.

    I could really use a helping hand in this regard, because I spent a good bit of time, to the note of these files over the weekend, and I wouldn't just as quickly again.

    I wonder if this is due to the fact that the exported catalog (any one) resides on a network drive.  I tested this feature, last winter (Re: import / export of files between computers on a wireless network) and it works perfectly.  But LR will not allow the primary catalog be stored on a network drive, then maybe it is linked in a way that I find with my tests.

    I suggest to export a catalog little test with just a few pictures and place the catalog and photos on a locally connected drive.  If it works, this indicates a workaround solution that bothers.
