The acronym APP refers in the context of this guide to the Arbortext Advanced Print Publisher product. It is used to describe code and instructions written to invoke the functionality of Arbortext Advanced Print Publisher within an Arbortext Styler stylesheet. You may also note the use of the term APP engine when working with Arbortext Styler. This is the print engine capability of the Arbortext Advanced Print Publisher product, which is integrated into Arbortext Styler to support advanced formatting requirements such as the output of text in non-Latin languages (CJK, or Hebrew, Arabic, or Thai).
Refer to Print Features Available with APP for a summary of the supplementary formatting features supported by Arbortext Advanced Print Publisher.
