Schema documentation can be also generated in PDF, DocBook or a custom format. You can choose the format from the Schema Documentation Dialog. For the PDF and DocBook formats, the option to split the output in multiple files is disabled.
For PDF the documentation is generated in DocBook format and after that a transformation using the FOP processor is applied to obtain the PDF file. If there are errors during the transformation using the Apache FOP these are presented. To configure the FOP processor see the FO Processors preferences page.
If you generate the documentation in DocBook format you can apply a transformation scenario on the output file, for example one of the scenarios proposed by <oXygen/> (DocBook PDF or DocBook HTML ) or configure your own scenario for it.
For the custom format you can specify your stylesheet to transform the intermediary
XML generated in the documentation process. You have to write your stylesheet based on
the schema xsdDocSchema.xsd
from
{INSTALATION_DIRECTORY}/frameworks/schema_documentation
. You can
create a custom format starting from one of the stylesheets used in the predefined HTML,
PDF and DocBook formats. These stylesheets are available in
{INSTALATION_DIRECTORY}/frameworks/schema_documentation/xsl
.
When using a custom format you can also copy additional resources into the output folder or choose to keep the intermediate XML files created during the documentation process.
