Overview of Free Version of Arbortext Styler
There are two different versions of Arbortext Styler: a free version packaged along with Arbortext Editor and a full version that must be licensed as a separate product. The free version of Arbortext Styler enables you to develop stylesheets to control display in Arbortext Editor, but does not permit development for other editors or outputs. In contrast, the full version of Arbortext Styler enables you to develop stylesheets for all supported output formats.

The free version of
Arbortext Styler has reduced functionality when compared to the full version. The
Arbortext Styler features required to develop
stylesheets for any print, PDF, or HTML outputs cannot be accessed in the free version, only the functionality required for developing
Arbortext Editorstylesheets. See
Limitations of Free Version of Arbortext Styler for more information about the functionality available in the free version of
Arbortext Styler.
If you elect to use the free version of Arbortext Styler to edit an existing stylesheet originally developed with the full version of Arbortext Styler, you will only be permitted to change the Arbortext Editor properties of that stylesheet. A warning message will advise you of this if you attempt to open a full stylesheet in Arbortext Editor, when your installation does not include a separately licensed version of Arbortext Styler:
You can, however, migrate a
stylesheet developed in the free version of
Arbortext Styler to the full version of
Arbortext Styler. See
Migrating Stylesheets from the Free Version to the Full Version of Arbortext Styler for more information.
