What is XMLmind XML Editor?

A visual XML editor (some would call it a WYSIWYG XML editor). A visual DocBook editor. A visual DITA editor. A visual XHTML editor.

XMLmind XML Editor allows to edit large, complex, modular, XML documents. It makes it easy mastering XML vocabularies such as DocBook or DITA. (More info.)

As you can see it in the screen shot below, XMLmind XML Editor is not a tool for programmers. Its users are generally technical writers.

v4.6.1 (July 30, 2010): Several very useful enhancements:
  • Support of CSS3 property border-radius.
  • Directly paste text copied from external word processors and spreadsheets as paragraphs, list items, itemized lists, table rows, tables, etc.
  • Automatically link DocBook callout elements to the corresponding co elements.
  • Made the Link tool even more convenient to use.
v4.6 (May 31, 2010): The new Link tool has been designed to allow quickly creating navigation links (e.g. DITA xref and link elements). While very convenient to use when editing a monolithic document, the Link tool really shines when it comes to creating navigation links in the context of a modular document (modular DocBook book, DITA map or bookmap, etc).
v4.5.2 (March 9, 2010): Several enhancements (native file chooser, convert DITA to EPUB, etc) and a few minor bug fixes.
v4.5.1 (November 26, 2009):
  • New submenu "View | Display Images" allows to display images as thumbnails, as bounding boxes or normally. The selected mode may be used as a default.
  • Thanks to XMLmind DITA Converter 1.1.0, DITA documents can now be converted to Eclipse Help.
  • Among several other functions, new menu item "Options | Customize Configuration | Preprocessing Options" makes it easy specifying a DITA conditional processing profile (a .ditaval file) from within XXE.
