Formatting problem with XEPAssistant and ActiXEP<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I just
downloaded XEPWinEngine and was setting up ActiXEP and XEP Assistant.
</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am running into 2 primary issues: </FONT><BR><FONT
face=Arial size=2>1. ActiXEP does not process the sample.xml file when I drop it
into the hot folder. It gives me this message:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>'exception during formatting: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: unexpected
character after document prolog (found "W") (expected "<") '</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. XEP Assistant throws this error for the same
file:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Formatting Failed:</FONT> <BR><A

Files/RenderX/XEP4NET/stylesheets/docbook/fo/docbook.xsl(29,2):</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I initially thought something may be wrong in the XML
but that XML works beautifully when I use the command line tool - xep.bat. It
generates the PDF as expected. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>What am I doing wrong in setting up XEP Assistant and
ActiXEP?</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Please advise. </FONT></P>
