You can create pattern matching rules that result in the
Output service examining input data and using different form designs
based on the data content. For example, if the text mortgage is
located within the input data, the Output service can use a form
design named Mortgage.xdp. Likewise, if the text automobile is
located in the input data, the Output service can use a form design that
is saved as AutomobileLoan.xdp. The following illustration shows
the Output service generating a PDF file by processing an XML data
file and using one of many form designs.
The Output service can generate document packages, where multiple
records are provided in the data set and each record is matched
to a form design. The Output service generates a single document
made up of comprised of multiple form designs.
To define pattern matching rules, define one or more text pattern
that the Output services searches for in the input data. For each
text pattern that you define, specify a corresponding form design
that is used if the text pattern is located within the data. If
a text pattern is located, the Output service uses the corresponding
form design to generate the output. An example of a text pattern
is mortgage.
