XSLT to transform Pitstop XML report with just the Doc Info

[mark.jetzer]

I've been searching and trying to write this myself. I am by no means an XML expert. I looking for help with an XSLT to transform a Pitstop XML report to an XML with just the Doc Info portion. Basically this section the the parts in bold:







_0002T_Art_Lay_Exact_Demo_02crops.pdf



%FileInfo%

GeneralDocInfo

-1





/C/Documents and Settings/araxi/Application Data/Enfocus/Switch Server/backing/XML Out/automanaged/Folder 1/_0002T_Art_Lay_Exact_Demo_02crops.pdf

Any help, guidance. In the end I want to feed that transformed XML into Prinergy and use it to build a job based on those fields.

These values are also available via Switch variables for job statistics and metadata.



Here are the variables:



Author: [Doc.Author]

Title: [Doc.Title]

Subject: [Doc.Description]

Keywords: [Doc.Keywords]

Number of pages: [Stats.NumberOfPages]

Yes, I know. I don't have the scripting module. I do have the Metadata. The problem is I need those parts as an XML file I can feed into my Kodak Workflow. To my knowledge there isn't any way to pull that from the Switch variables for job statistics and turn it into an XML file without the scripting module.

Scripting would make it easy but you could create a simple XML file using the Execute command configurator.

Ay tips on how to do that?

Here is the XSL that you need:



























I put in there as the top level of the transformed XML. If you need something else, change it. And there is just one line in there to illustrate how to do it for Author, the rest is just copy and paste. Take care of double and single quotes, uppercase and lowercase, slashes, . One mistake and it does not work. Good luck.
