Document Type

A document type or framework is associated to an XML file according to a set of rules. It includes also many settings that improve editing in the Tagless editor for the category of XML files it applies for. These settings include:

Note: The Author mode allows WYSIWYG-like visual editing of XML documents and is available only in the products Oxygen XML Editor and Oxygen XML Author.

The tagless editor comes with some predefined document types already configured when the application is installed on the computer. These document types describe well-known XML frameworks largely used today for authoring XML documents. Editing a document which conforms to one of these types is as easy as opening it or creating it from one of the predefined document templates which also come with the application.
