Newbie - Oxygen > Prince > Mac OSX

Hi Guys,
Apologies if this is asking the obvious, i'm running Oxygen on Mac OSX Lion, using the Prince XML as an FO, I have installed Prince in correct system path /usr/local my Path Variables allow me to call the Prince MAN Pages, but I cannot work out how to call Prince in the FO Processors Setup in Oxygen, in windows I can point to the exe and away you go, in Mac I need the syntax to call and execute, so I can generate direct to PDF from Oxygen....

Any help appreciated.

D.

Hello,

There is another thread on the forum that addresses Prince XML with Oxygen:
Prince XML and oXygen

Do note that this is not a "by design" use, it just so happens that you can configure Oxygen to use Prince as a "fake" FO Processor or even as a "fake" XSLT Custom Engine in Oxygen.

There is no peculiarity for Mac OS X, you can browse just the same for the Prince XML executable from its installation directory: prince/bin/prince

Regards,
Adrian
