XML batch structure

When you use the Adapter for File System (XSLT), XSL transformations need an XML structure (for example from a file) as input. The XSLT export uses an XML structure with the content of the XBOUND root document. This allows access to all components of the root document during export.

The XML structure contains these elements:

document

Represents an XBOUND document.

medium

Represents an XBOUND medium.

barcodes / barcode

Represents the barcodes of an XBOUND medium.

field

Represents an XBOUND field.

sheet

Represents an XBOUND sheet.

page

Represents an XBOUND page.

image

Represents an XBOUND image.

Note: If you display the documents in the Process Monitor, the XML "medium" elements of the "image" are displayed both under Document structure and Media. This is because the XML structure does not handle references. XSLT scripts should provide for either the Sheet|Page|Image media listing structure or the document listing.
