				Hi,
This question does not seem related to Oxygen XML Editor. Maybe from Java code or from a command line you can create a file on disk and save some XML content inside it.

				Thanks Radu for  your reply.
I have tried copying our custom topic template xml  to create a new topic and saved 
but our topic template uses custom variable 
customtoipcID 
to create a unique topic id for a newly created topic
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE topic PUBLIC "-//xxxx//DTD xxx DITA Topic//EN" "xxxtopic.dtd">
<topic id="${customtoipcID}">
    <title></title>
    <body></body>
</topic>
the new file with copied xml is giving error
Attribute value "${customtoipcID}" of type ID must be an NCName when namespaces are enabled.
when we create using File new - and topic template -  the uniqueID will create automatically 
where as in the case of manually it is giving error.
Thanks,
vishwa

				Hi,
Yes, when you use Oxygen's File->New dialog and choose a new file template, all Oxygen editor variables from inside the file will be automatically expanded by Oxygen before opening the file contents.
