Find/Replace in EPUB, IDML archives

Post by mrankin »

It would be extremely useful to be able to run a single find/replace on archive file formats like EPUB and IDML and have all the files inside the archive searched/changed at once. For example to change a style applied to text in an IDML file, I have to search every story XML file for the name of the style. Depending on the length of the document, there can be dozens of XML files to search.

Currently, I have to either expand the archive and use Find in Files, or open each XML file from the archive browser separately.

This feature alone would be worth upgrading!

Thanks!

Hello,

Starting with Oxygen 12.2 Find/Replace in Files also works on EPUB, IDML files and other types of ZIP-based archives(ZIP, JAR, ODT, docx, etc). Find/Replace in Files is also available in context(selection) in both the Project view and the Archive Browser view.

What is new in <oXygen/> XML Editor 12.2

Adrian
