The Outer Layer of the Publishing Framework
Arbortext installations contain a number of outer layer publishing packages, located in Arbortext-path\packages\tools. These outer layer ACL packages are named comp_type.acl, where type corresponds to the type of processing it performs. For example, HTML publishing is handled by comp_html.acl, while publishing to PDF is handled by comp_pdf.acl. Each outer layer package contains three entry points and four callback routines.
