Adobe Save As XML PlugIn

Adobe Save As XML PlugIn is a simple yet powerful utility that is developed as a plug-In for Acrobat 5.0 that allows users to save time by repurposing content. Users can now easily save content into XML, HTML, XHTML or plain text from a tagged Adobe PDF file and place that content in other tools to reuse the information.

A tagged Adobe PDF file can be generated from Microsoft Office 2000, from PageMaker 7.0, by using the Acrobat 5.0 Web Capture feature to convert a website to Adobe PDF, by using the Make Accessible Plug-In, or by sending PostScript+pdfmark through Acrobat Distiller. The structure which the creating program embeds in the PDF file will come back out in the XML or HTML generated by the Save As XML Plug-In.

Instructions:

• Close all applications.
• Download the Plug-in to your local drive.
• Double click the file "SaveAsXMLPlugIn_beta.bin".
• Proceed through the Save As XML Plug-In Installer dialog boxes.
• Launch Acrobat 5.
• Locate the new options under the Save As Type pop-up in the File:SaveAs... dialog box.
