Some document types are defined and then referenced only by System ID (in other words, by an absolute path). This complicates using Arbortext PE server for publishing operations, because the document type is likely to be installed in a different location on the server than on the client.

To get around this problem, you can add a catalog file to a document type directory on the Arbortext PE server that contains SYSTEM declarations for these document types. Each SYSTEM declaration should map an absolute path to the document type on a client to the absolute path to the document type on the Arbortext PE server.

You'll want to follow the practice of reducing the number of mappings needed if you're using the Arbortext PE server. Installing document types in the same location on every client machine will help minimize the total number of SYSTEM mappings you need to define.
