Edit Data Items in Simple or Advanced Edit Mode
• To edit a data item in simple edit mode, edit a simple string that corresponds to the
data in the stylesheet. This string appears in the field to the right of the Value label.
For some values, use a selection list to change the value instead of typing in text.
• To edit a data item in advanced edit mode, edit the XML code directly.
Note: This section gives instructions for simple edit mode, except where explicitly
specified otherwise.
The user interface is in simple edit mode when the data item appears in a pane labeled
Value. It is in advanced edit mode when the data item appears in a pane labeled Value
(XML). To switch from simple to advanced edit mode, click Edit as XML.
Edit values for most data items in PDF and HTML stylesheets in either simple edit mode
or advanced edit mode. Edit values for RTF stylesheets in simple edit mode only. Data
items in RTF stylesheets do not support advanced edit mode.
Note: To modify content for headers and footers you edit stylesheet cells, which do not
appear in either simple or advanced mode. For more information, see “Stylesheet Cells
for Headers and Footers” on page 8-23.
