Building XSLTs and Schemas example example Brian Jones Program Manager Authoring & Collaboration Services

What Was Covered? No tools for generating XSLTs for WordML Best way to find out how to represent something in WordML? (just save as XML from Word) Word will not create schemas There are tools for.xml ->.xsd We hope to have a solution in the CDK from helping to build a schema from within Word 3

What We Have Enabled Summary Mark up Word doc with your XML Customer-defined XML schema validation Insert XML data into Word doc Embedded islands of live linked XML data XSLT, XPath Save Word docs as XML single file, full round-trip Rich customizability & programmability see OFC303 and OFC308 Ease of SmartDoc solution deployment see OFC302 Research Library web services see OFC322
