Arbortext Editor users can be set up to use Arbortext Publishing Engine to publish their documents. For information on the specific versions of Arbortext Editor clients supported by Arbortext Publishing Engine, consult the system and software requirements section of the Installation Guide for Arbortext Publishing Engine.

Arbortext Editor users need to ask the Arbortext Publishing Engine administrator for the URL that specifies the server, port number, and Arbortext Publishing Engine servlet specification as configured by the web application server or servlet container where Arbortext Publishing Engine is installed. In a standard installation, Arbortext Editor users have the option to enter the URL for the Arbortext PE server. These options are also available to Arbortext Editor users from the Publishing Engine panel of Tools > Preferences.

If your site will be deploying a compact installation of Arbortext Editor, be sure to consult the Arbortext Editor Deployment Kit Guide. The compact deployment recommends adding set peservices and set peserverurl options to the Deploy Directory’s siteprefs.xml file.

Arbortext Editor users can request a report containing Arbortext Publishing Engine publishing information, such as document types, stylesheets, framesets, and content pipelines available from Arbortext Publishing Engine when publishing documents. On the Arbortext Editor client, go to the Help > PE Configuration command.
