MXF Client
Installtion
- Use Windows Explorer to navigate to SmathersNT12\DLC\Software\MXF\MXF [latest version]\.
- Run the installer, MXFCLient_W2k_Setup.exe, and accept all the prompts.
- Copy the MXF shortcut from SmathersNT12\DLC\Software\MXF to All Users\Desktop.
- The installer creates an MXF Client folder in the Start Menu\Programs folder under either All Users or under the current user. Its only contents is a bad shortcut, so just delete that MXF Client folder.
- The login name is admin.
- The password, of course, is secret. Ask someone who uses the client.
Use
If, for whatever reason, the new 2003-style SGML methods fall through, we might still be able to ftp a package with an old MXF (if there is one). It will not be full-text searchable, but it will at least be in PALMM.
But three things must be updated in the olf MXF:
- The value of the procInstr attribute derivatives must be "pdf/chapter", not "jpeg/chapter".
- The value of the procInstr attribute server must be "FT", not "DL".
- The file extension in the filename elements must be .pdf, not .jpg.
Two find-and-replace's should take care of that.
Note: only the one XML file needs to be sent, not the DIV, ENT, FIL, PKG or TREE files.
