RE: can ENTITY ImportedGraphic - be omitted?
Sorry if this isn't relevant. It has been a while since I was in the depths of structured documents, DTDs, EDDs, R/W, and the like. One thing that stumped me for a while was the creation of entities for graphics when they shouldn't have been. Turns out that if the userstring property (which was being set by a script as a means of tracking) is set to any value, FM creates an entity based on the value. Had to add a script to my workflow that eliminated all userstring values from all graphics/graphic elements. Eric L.

Wim,
If you need to import graphics specified with entities, then you are
better off using XSLT. As far as the export issue, try making the attribute
rule a subrule of the rules for the graphic element:
element "graphic" {
is fm graphic element;
attribute "entity" is fm attribute;
}

RE: can ENTITY ImportedGraphic - be omitted?
Hello Lynn,
thanks you for your quick response. Your suggestion to use 'the function
unparsed-entity-uri' works, thanks!
I can not get the corrcet syntax for FM to export only as file, not as
entity. It keeps on exporting it as an entity, even when I delete the
entity reference page and use the 'attribute "entity" is fm attribute'
rule (FM won't import graphics that are declared by entitys though).

Wim,
1) FM can export a graphic using either an ENTITY attribute (default
name is entity) or a CDATA attribute (default name is file). The value
of the former is the name of an unparsed entity whose system identifier
names the graphic file; the value of the latter is the name of the
graphic file. If the DTD declares both attributes, FM uses the ENTITY
attribute.
You can specify the attribute names with read/write rules such as:
element "image" {
is fm graphic element;
attribute "graphicfile" is fm property file;
attribute "graphicentity" is fm property entity;
}
These rules allow FM to import files that use either graphicfile or
graphicentity, but on export it would always use graphicentity. If you
want it to export only graphicfile, remove the rule for graphicentity.
If you want to export using graphicfile, but to be able to import either
form, you'll need to use different rules for opening XML documents and
saving documents as XML.
If your DTD happens to declare an ENTITY attribute named entity and you
don't want FM to use it for exporting graphics, use the rule:
attribute "entity" is fm attribute;
2) While XSLT cannot simply copy the internal DTD subset of the document
it is processing, it can generate a new one with entity declarations
equivalent to those in the original. Use the function
unparsed-entity-uri to write such a transform.

Can this be changed - to keep the graphic references in the XML body?
Problem is, that we want to use some XSLT to preprocess or postprocess
the XML files and it seems to be impossible to keep the header with the
entity references. Has anyone yet a work around for this? (FM 7.2).
Wim,
