Hi Joe,

There is an author customization tutorial in our user's manual:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... intro.html

Basically if Oxygen has an XML and a CSS file, you can use the Author visual editing mode to edit the XML. But the CSS must match and style XML elements, and not HTML elements which would result from applying an XSLT on the XML document. So you need a separate CSS to style your XML elements.
Also if you have an XML Schema or DTD grammar associated to the XML, Oxygen will validate the XML according to the grammar and it will also provide content completion entries when editing.

Regards,
Radu

Hi,

Do you have any idea about xml ,xslt, css, html. If yes , do you know to create page in Oxygen. If yes , follow and edit the codes first , then follow the oxygen guidelines of transformation and generating output accordingly you need. PDF generation is a different process.
