Custom Document Wizards

Stylus Studio's custom document wizard feature allows you to create and configure document wizards that invoke third-party file conversion and document generation tools, such as Thai Open Source's Trang. When run, a custom document wizard passes argument values provided by the user (the name of the file to be converted, for example) to the command line that invokes the third-party tool. The third-party tool generates an output file as specified in the custom document wizard's command line, and the file is then opened by Stylus Studio in the appropriate editor.

Example

An example of a custom document wizard is the DTD to XML Schema (Trang) document wizard shipped with Stylus Studio.
