Configuration Prerequisites
Prior to configuring and using Arbortext Import/Export, ensure that the following items have been addressed. Refer to the Installation Guide for Arbortext Editor, Arbortext Styler, and Arbortext Architect and the Installation Guide for Arbortext Publishing Engine for client and server installation details respectively.
• Arbortext Import/Export must be activated and licensed on your Arbortext Publishing Engine.
Export stylesheet development, Import MapTemplate development, and document conversion can be performed directly on an Arbortext Publishing Engine server using Arbortext Publishing Engine Interactive. The Arbortext Publishing Engine is also the engine used by client workstations performing document conversions.
• To import and export files (and do no Import MapTemplate or Export Stylesheet development), each Arbortext Editor workstation must be configured to use the Arbortext Publishing Engine for publishing. Arbortext Import/Export only needs to be licensed and activated on these client workstations if they are to be used to preview exported RTF documents using Arbortext Styler.
Ensure that each client workstation has featureImportExport set to on in their installprefs.acl file and has the following set option values (or Advanced Preference settings):
◦ peservices = on
◦ peserverurl = <your_PE_server_name>
If your workstation is not currently connected to an Arbortext Publishing Engine server licensed for Arbortext Import/Export, you will not be able to import or export documents using Arbortext Import/Export.
• To develop export stylesheets on Arbortext Editor client workstations, Arbortext Styler and Arbortext Import/Export must be licensed and installed on these workstations. Ensure these workstations have the same installprefs.acl and Advanced Preference settings as those for workstations used to import and export files.
• To develop Import MapTemplates, Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (x86) and .NET Compact Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 Redistributable (or .NET Version 3.0 which includes the .NET Version 2.0 Framework) must be installed on each Arbortext Editor client workstation where Import MapTemplates will be developed. Arbortext Import/Export must also be installed and licensed on these workstations. Ensure these workstations have the same installprefs.acl and Advanced Preference settings as those for workstations used to import and export files. Additionally, ensure that featureImportMapping is set to on in each workstation's installprefs.acl file.
