Exporting from XMLmind to PDF

Built into XMLmind XML Editor is the functionality to export the TEI-XML file as LaTeX files. When in “Publication” mode, the button “PDF/LaTeX” provides a series of commands to generate and interact with the LaTeX files.

Explanation of commands

  • Do it all!: Runs the sequence Export to EOATeX, Copy bibliography, Run XeLaTeX once, Run Biber, Run XeLaTeX twice
  • Export to EOATeX: Exports the XML to LaTeX files. A window will pop up that lets you set publication-specific parameters.
  • Copy bibliography: Copies the bibliography into the output directory.
  • Run XeLaTeX once: Runs the xelatex command once.
  • Run XeLaTeX twice: Runs the xelatex command twice.
  • Run Biber: Runs the biber command to process the bibliographic database.
  • Open output directory: Opens the output directory in a file browser.
  • Open PDF: Opens the resulting PDF.
  • Open main TeX document: Opens the main LaTeX file in the default TeX editor.

Export parameters

Each publication requires different parameters, concerning e.g. the list of contributors (or none at all) or the frontmatter. When selecting Export to EOATeX, a window pops up, that, after having been expanded, shows the different settings.
