Preview XSLT

This tool is designed to let you convert your XML data coded in the Archiving and Interchange DTD suite into HTML. It includes an XSL transform that converts XML to HTML and a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) that formats the HTML document. The CSS can be easily edited to accomodate your own formatting styles.

The files for this tool are available for download on the FTP directory. To complete the XML to HTML conversion, you'll need an XSLT processor.

A static version of the basic CSS is available on the Web at http://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/tools/ViewNLM.css. If you choose not to alter the CSS, you can point your HTML documents directly to that URL. However, if you do choose to alter the CSS you'll need to maintain your own local copy of the stylesheet.

Preview XSL-FO

The NLM/NCBI article-fo.xsl stylesheet is intended to provide a way to make readable formatted pages from articles tagged using version 1.1 of the Publishing DTD of the NLM Archiving and Interchange Suite.

The stylesheet creates an XSL-FO document which can be rendered with an XSL-FO engine to pages (typically in PDF format).

The files for this tool are available for download on the FTP directory. To complete the XML to XSL-FO conversion, you'll need an XSLT processor and to complete the XSL-FO to PDF conversion, you'll need an XSL-FO engine.
