Keep XML structure: Select if you want the generated files to have the exact same
structure as the original XML file (all the way to the root node).
l
Add new root node: Select this option and enter a root node name in the box to the right, if

Encoding group: This group lets you indicate whether you want the splitter to use the
file’s own encoding or the universal encoding UTF8 to process the file. Note that if the file
