Oxygen XML Forum

Hi,

my current pdf transformation uses simply "${cfn}.pdf" as configured output file. However, I'd like to add the document version (coming from a specific element inside the document) to the filename. And for my diff it should be something like "${BookName}-Diff-v${NewerVersion}-to-${OlderVersion}.pdf".

I already implemented this for my pure xml transformation where I can use xsl:result-document and calculate the value fo @href inside the xslt. Is there any way to do the same when using the (apache-)fop?

Thanks and regards,

Patrik

Hi Patrik,

Funny thing, there is somebody else on this forum with the user name patrick who had the same problem about a couple of weeks ago and he solved it using the xpath_eval editor variable:

which we added in Oxygen 16.0.

The forum thread is here:

So initially I thought that you were asking again for an answer to the same problem.

Hi Radu,

thanks for the hint. But the xpath-expression would be quite complex and programming inside a single line edit field is not really confortable.

Now I use xproc including an additional xslt to calculate the filename and this works as well and feels easier to maintain.

Hi Patrik,

Yes, XProc is also an option. Or you can write an ANT build file with multiple stages and create a transformation scenario for it.
