2 Using the export filters

2.7 Custom configuration

Each of the exports provides the possibility to use a custom format/style. Currently you have to manually edit a configuration file to define it. All three exporters uses a configuration file in the user installation folder for OOo.

On unix-like systems this folder will usually be something like

home directory/.OpenOffice.org2/user

or

home directory/.OpenOffice.org/3/user
On Windows it will usually be something like

C:\Documents and Settings\username\OpenOffice.org2\user

or

C:\Documents and Settings\username\OpenOffice.org\3\user

(Note that this directory may be hidden.)

Writer2LaTeX uses a file named writer2latex.xml, and Writer2xhtml and Calc2xhtml shares a file named writer2xhtml.xml. These files are created automatically the first time you use the custom configuration.

See section 4 for the structure of the configuration file.
