Changelog: XSL plug-in (v14)

The eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) plug-in enables Typefi workflows to transform an XML document according to instructions specified in an XSL stylesheet. The XSL action uses the Saxon 9 processor. For more information about the XSL plug-in, please get in touch.

* Some custom configuration of this action may be required to match a given XML schema or DTD.

We release updates regularly and it's our goal to make sure that our software works well, constantly—that Typefi continues to deliver, every day. If you have any feedback or run into any issues, please drop us a line. We're happy to help.

15.0.165 — Temporarily removed from circulation

Note A potential issue has been brought to our attention that has prompted us to remove this version from circulation while we investigate and determine next steps.

Requires Typefi Server 8.2 or later

• Added Pretty print output for Apply XSL transform
  • When enabled, Pretty print output sets the whiteSpaceMode to strict and then formats and indents text as well as tags

• Renamed XSLT Zip input to Stylesheet for Apply XSL transform
• Added .xsl as a valid Stylesheet file extension for Apply XSL transform (that is, we now support .xsl for less complicated transforms and .xzip for more complex transforms)
• Multiple bug fixes and improvements for Import IDML
  • Fixed an issue where character formatting (for example: underline, strikethrough, superscript, subscript, all caps and small caps) could erroneously be applied as a local style (tps:style) when the formatting was applied via a character style
  • Fixed multiple issues related to grouped or nested Fixed Elements that could produce invalid, duplicate, or erroneous content (for example, <tps:p type="[No paragraph style]"><!--Missing float element–>)
  • Fixed an issue where hyperlinks within endnotes produced invalid CXML

14.0.140 — 13 September 2019

Requires Typefi Server 8.2 or later

• Multiple bug fixes and improvements for Import IDML
  • Fixed an issue where Typefi Section fields may be omitted if the field value contains a comma (for example, <tps:fieldSet name="Titulo_capitulo" value="Las edades del hombre, adaptadas a la vida del que escribe estas líneas"/> was omitted)
  • Fixed an issue where Typefi Sections may be omitted from the output CXML if the first master page of Section did not contain a Main Story frame
  • Fixed an issue where whitespace after a character styled string within a footnotes may not be handled correctly (for example, the omitted space after the italicized word "missing" in <tps:footnote><tps:p>This is <tps:c type="italic">missing</tps:c>a whitespace.</tps:p>)
  • Fixed multiple issues related to supporting round trip of Endnote sections. For more information on Endnotes, please see Content XML 3.1 → Endnotes

13.0.137

Internal release

12.0.122 — 13 March 2019

Requires Typefi Server 8.2 or later

Whitespace processing

Import IDML now has an Advanced tab to specify whitespace handling when converting from IDML to Content XML. You can choose between Strict (default) or Preserve whitespace modes, and optionally choose to Format and indent (that is, pretty-print).

To learn more about whitespace modes like Strict and Preserve in Content XML, please see Content XML 3.1 → Whitespace.

Caution We do not recommend selecting Preserve whitespace mode and Format and indent at the same time. Doing so may cause undesired results when the Content XML output is used in later actions (for example, Create InDesign document).

• Added acknowledgements for our contributors, whose efforts over many years have made this software what it is (click the workflow plugin version number to view)
• Fixed an issue in Apply XSL transform where an input XML file containing a BOM character may fail
• Multiple bug fixes and improvements for Import IDML
  
  • Fixed an issue where two paragraphs could be merged if a soft style was applied at the end of the first paragraph
  • Fixed an issue where a paragraph separator (U+2029) may not be handled correctly, which could cause separate paragraphs to merge
  • Fixed an issue where whitespace in Typefi Fields was double-encoded (that is, it renders as %20 in later actions)
  • Fixed a character-encoding issue where some accented characters in Typefi Fields could be replaced by non-accented characters
  • Fixed a character-encoding issue where Import IDML may fail if the input IDML had accented characters in its filename
  • Fixed an issue where footnotes could be omitted from the output CXML
