Vous êtes ici

XLingPaper version 3.5.0 (for the XMLmind XML Editor version 7.2+) and version 2.35.0 (for the XMLmind XML Editor version 5.3) are now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

This new version of XLingPaper has a number of improvements and bug fixes.

The main highlights are:

  • Improve loading speed for object elements via CSS.
  • Allow a refAuthorInitials element to contain langData, etc., elements.
  • Add replacecolonwith attribute to citationLayout element to allow something other than a colon between date and page number(s) in a citation.
  • For the default way of producing PDF (via XeLaTeX): Fix bug: when calculating table cell width, the default formatting was justify instead of left.

If you have not previously installed XLingPaper, you can obtain an installation program for Windows, Mac or Linux at http://software.sil.org/xlingpaper/download/.

If you have already installed XLingPaper version 2.10.0 or higher and merely want to upgrade, then you will need to download and install the XLingPaper update file. See https://software.sil.org/xlingpaper/download/config-only/. Be careful to get the installer for the version of the XMLmind XML Editor you are using (it is possible to install both, if you wish). If you have modified any of the stock publisher style sheets, please be sure to make a backup of your work before running this installer. It may overwrite your modifications.
