Summary

Altova StyleVision 2008 Enterprise Edition - Upgrade from Altova StyleVision 2008 Professional Edition by Altova

Design stylesheets for transforming XML & database content to HTML, PDF, RTF. Altova StyleVision® is a visual stylesheet designer for transforming XML and database content into HTML, PDF, and Word/RTF output and creating Authentic electronic forms. Altova StyleVision® supports XSLT, XSL:FO, CSS, and all major databases. Altova StyleVision® features a graphical design interface for creating stylesheets to transform XML and database data into multiple output formats. Because StyleVision produces standards-conformant XSLT 1.0, XSLT 2.0, and XSL:FO stylesheets, plus HTML, Word/RTF, PDF, and Authentic form output simultaneously, based on one design, developers and designers no longer need to spend countless hours hand-coding and testing intricate stylesheets to implement single source publishing and database reporting solutions.

StyleVision features and functionality include:

Enhanced, highly intuitive graphical design interface

Support for built-in and imported CSS styles

Visual, drag & drop stylesheet design

Support for JavaScript functions and a JavaScript editor

Support for DTD, XML Schema, and relational database sources

Support for multiple sources in one design

Web page design Combining XML and database data in one design

Database report design HTML to XML converter

PDF design Industry template support (DITA , DocBook, NewsML, etc.)

Microsoft Word / RTF design

Generation of standards-based stylesheets

Converting XML to HTML, PDF, Word/RTF Style repository for managing and applying styles

Authentic electronic forms design

Batch execution from command line

Standards-conformance: XSLT 1.0/2.0, XPath 1.0/2.0, XSL:FO

Automate Stylesheet Creation

The design you create in StyleVision can be based on any DTD, XML Schema, or relational database, and multiple sources are supported. For instance, you can create one design to produce HTML, PDF, and Word/RTF output that includes data from both XML and database sources. Your single design also simultaneously produces standards-conformant XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 and XSL:FO stylesheets, plus the corresponding Authentic electronic form. At any time during the design process, you can view and save the XSLT and XSL:FO stylesheets that are built behind the scenes based on your design. Since they are standards-based, you can use these generated stylesheets in other applications as necessary. In addition to defining formatting and layout guidelines, StyleVision allows you to design stylesheets and Authentic forms that support advanced functions such as complex table handling, rich input formatting, business logic validation, date control, and more.

Create Eye-catching Output

The new, improved StyleVision user interface allows you to easily create attractive designs that support advanced functionality. You simply drag elements from your data source(s) on to the design pane, and StyleVision prompts you to select an option for rendering the content. You can insert static content, such as headers, images, etc., that you enter directly in your design, then drag and drop elements from XML and/or database sources that will be rendered dynamically based on the source data. It’s easy to apply layout and style information to the content in your design. StyleVision includes multiple advanced entry-helper windows for viewing and editing the source elements and styles used throughout the design. Styles can be applied using drag-and-drop functionality and by editing properties directly in the entry helper windows.

For HTML Web page design, StyleVision supports all the design elements found on today’s advanced Web pages, including hyperlinks, CSS styles, JavaScript functions, etc. It even includes a JavaScript editor for defining functions that add dynamic, event-based functionality to your HTML pages.

To leverage existing Web content, StyleVision also includes a handy HTML importer for HTML to XML conversion. Using easy drag-and-drop functionality, StyleVision will quickly convert an HTML page to an XML Schema, XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 stylesheet, and XML instance document. This feature adds extensibility to your current HTML content, which can now be used in XML-based applications and rendered in PDF, Word/RTF, and Authentic form formats, as well.

Design User-friendly Electronic Forms

In addition to rendering attractive HTML, PDF, and Word/RTF output, each design you create in StyleVision also produces an Authentic form for use with Altova Authentic. Authentic is a free XML and database content editor that allows non-technical business users to view and edit data in XML documents and relational databases - without being exposed to the underlying technology. They simply fill in electronic forms (created using StyleVision), and their content or query is automatically written to or run against an XML document or relational database behind the scenes. And, since Authentic is available under a free license, you can distribute the Authentic forms you create in StyleVision to as many end users as required at no additional cost.

In addition, because your design also simultaneously produces XSLT and XSL:FO stylesheets along with the Authentic form, you can output the data entered through the form directly to HTML, PDF, and Word/RTF without having to design additional stylesheets.

What’s new in Altova StyleVision 2008 Release 2?

Grouping support based on the XSLT 2.0 standard

Creating Global Templates based on Complex and Simple types

Support for creating Database Views

Project management support

StyleVision 2008, Altova’s visual stylesheet design tool, has been updated with new features, which simplify component reuse, as well as support working with databases, and more.

New features in StyleVision 2008 include:

Modular StyleVision design files – allows users to import existing StyleVision designs to reuse their work in multiple projects.

Database Connection Wizard – simplifies connecting to supported databases.

Database Query window – allows users to query supported databases directly within StyleVision.

Refactoring support when working with XML Schemas – detects changes made to source XML Schemas and allows designers to easily update StyleVision design files.

What's new in StyleVision 2007 Release 3?

Superior database support – StyleVision now works directly with XML data stored inside XML-enabled databases (limited to IBM DB2 9 in this release). Users simply associate database XML fields with XML Schemas then drag defined data elements on to the design pane for rendering and publishing

Table of contents capability – A new table of contents (TOC) capability makes StyleVision 2007r3 even more attractive for publishing large documents that have source content in XML or databases and require tables of contents when output to HTML, Word, and/or PDF. A context-sensitive right click menu and wizard allow users to tag items in a design for inclusion in the TOC

Formatting Objects Processor 0.93 – StyleVision now supports the latest Apache formatting objects processor (FOP) for processing XSL-FO stylesheets to produce PDF output from XML and/or database content. As with the previous Apache processor, FOP 0.93 is available as a free download from the Altova Web site.

Design fragment reuse – StyleVision 2007r3 provides a new design fragment capability that lets users save a set of formatting rules as a template and re-use that template throughout a design as required

Design stylesheets for transforming XML & database content to HTML, PDF, RTF.
