XLingPaper version 2.28.0 is now available for Windows, Mac, and
Linux.
(Mac users: please do not upgrade to El Capitan yet. We are
working on a solution for why it does not work correctly with
XLingPaper.)
This new version of XLingPaper
has a number of improvements and bug fixes.
The main highlights are:
- Allow an author element to have a contentType attribute (so
can easily leave it out when submitting a work anonymously).
- In the UI, change behavior of the black drop-down button on
reference elements so that it invokes the SetReference command
instead of showing all elements with IDs.
- Add a special command to produce a web page of the master list
of abbreviations.
- Add ability to create a list of ISO 639-3 codes used in a
document with links from the code to the list; include a
language name.
- Add glossary term capability so one can have a master list of
glossary terms and then refer to them in the document. The
output will show only those used in the document in a table in
either a preface or a glossary element.
You can obtain an installation program for Windows, Mac or Linux at
http://www.xlingpaper.org/?page_id=51.
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
http://www.xlingpaper.org/?page_id=107.
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.
The recent changes are:
- 2.28.0 9 November 2015
- Improve documentation on showLevel attribute of contents
element.
- Fix bug: if an annotation in a refWork element contained a
citation element, that citation element was treated as if it
were in the document proper.
- Thanks to work by Kent Rasmussen, the Zotero to XLingPaper
command now allows one to convert one or more Zotero
abstracts, notes, and keywords to an XLingPaper annotation.
Note that the command does expect one to have an
annotatedBibliographyType element whose ID attribute is
'atAbstract' and one whose ID attribute is 'atNote'.
- Allow an author element to have a contentType attribute (so
can easily leave it out when submitting a work anonymously).
- Add info about editing referenced style sheet in publisher
style sheet documentation.
- Fix some typos in generated messages in UI.
- Update link to vowel chart download site in the "Journal of
the International Phonetic Association Illustration article,
submission format" template.
- Add a resetEndnoteNumbering attribute to the chapterLayout
element in a publisher style sheet. It controls whether
endnote numbering should be reset at each chapter or not.
- Add SILEWP document template and update SILEWP publisher
style sheet.
- In the UI, change behavior of the black drop-down button on
reference elements so that it invokes the SetReference command
instead of showing all elements with IDs.
- Fix bug: Publishing info material would show at the end of a
book when using a style sheet.
- Fix bug: multiple preface elements with multiple
prefaceLayout elements in a style sheet did not line up
according to the documentation. Same for multiple glossary
elements with multiple glossaryLayout elements.
- Fix bug: The convert gloss to abbreviation command failed to
work in an embedded object and also if the gloss began with 1,
2, or 3 and the rest of the gloss was uppercase, but the
abbreviation(s) for the rest of the gloss were lowercase in
the abbreviation element, it failed to convert it to an
abbrRef.
- Fix some typos in the user documentation.
- Further clarify the
usecitationformatwhennumberofsharedpaperis attribute on the
referencesLayout element in the publisher style sheet
documentation. Also change its default value to 2.
- Add startingPageNumberInBook attribute to publishingInfo
element.
- Add useperiodafternumber attribute to sectionTitleLayout
element in publisher style sheet to control period after
section numbers when there is no overt numberLayout element.
- Add a special command to produce a web page of the master
list of abbreviations.
- In the publisher style sheet, add textafterReferenceNumber
and textbeforeReferenceNumber attributes to the
interlinearTextLayout element.
- Add ignoreabbreviationsfontfamily attribute on abbreviation
element to user documentation.
- Add ability to create a list of ISO 639-3 codes used in a
document with links from the code to the list; include a
language name.
- Add ability to include an interlinearSource element in a
single or listSingle example.
- Add glossary term capability so one can have a master list
of glossary terms and then refer to them in the document. The
output will show only those used in the document in a table in
either a preface or a glossary element.
- Add brief history description to user documentation.
- Allow comment elements in author element (so one can keep
the information while submitting a paper for anonymous
review).
- Allow a publisher style sheet to correctly place multiple
preface elements or glossary elements around other
frontmatter/backmatter elements.
- Add note to documentation about problems with duplicate
fonts on Windows 7 causing XXE and default PDF to not show the
font correctly.
- Add a missing collection pattern to the
SIL-UNDThesisReferencesStylesheet.xml file.
- Fix IJAL publisher style sheets to show section numbers
correctly.
- For the default way of producing PDF (via XeLaTeX):
- Add a XeLaTeXSpecial attribute to the chapter element so
one can force a page break when chapters do not
necessarily begin a new page.
- Add new attribute to the freeLayout element in a
publisher style sheet: adjustIndentOfNonInitialLineBy. The
value entered will be subtracted from the normal indent of
second and following lines in a long free translation.
This is only for the 'automatically wrap interlinears'
case.
- Fix bug: the indentOfNonInitialGroup attribute of the
interlinearMultipleLineGroupLayout element in a publisher
style sheet did not work correctly for interlinear
examples when the automaticallywrapinterlinears attribute
of the lingPaper element was set to 'yes'.
- In the style sheet, add an indentOfInitialGroup
attribute on the interlinearTextLayout element. This
controls how much to indent the first line of an
interlinear text when using the automatic wrapping of
interlinear text option.
- Add ability to insert continuous line numbering in the
PDF output. See section 2.10 'Add line numbers to output'
in the publisher style sheet documentation.
- Fix bug: when a publisher style sheet was set to use
double spacing and endnotes and examples are set to be
singlespaced, an example in an endnote could come out in
the wrong font size.
- Fix bug: when using double spacing or space and a half
and tables were not set to use single spacing, sometimes
the table came out single-spaced anyway.
- Fix bug: table captions with style sheets were not
always coming out in the correct position.
- Fix bug: an empty free element would cause the PDF to
fail to be produced.
- Fix bug: in an endnote embedded in an interlinear-text,
the use of a gloss element whose language element had a
font-family could cause the rest of the endnote to be
formatted using that gloss' font-family.
- Fix bug: if one had a section title beginning a
paragraph, there would be too much space between the
section number and the section title.
- Fix bug: an endnote in a table in an li element would
cause the PDF not to be produced.
- Fix bug: A non-initial paragraph in an endnote did not
indent.
- (Remove some files in the set of configuration files we are
no longer using.)
