Making XDC files available to Output

When you use XDC Editor to modify an XDC file, the resultant file is stored on the local file system. To allow Output to access your modified XDC files, you must check them in to the AEM forms server (preferred) or copy them to a location that is accessible from AEM forms server. Here are some examples:

  • A computer that has a folder shared with the server computer. In this case, the process or API references the modified XDC file by using the literal expression:

    FILE:///Dir_1/Dir_2/myFile.xdc

    HTTP://name/myFile.xdc

  • A folder on the computer that hosts AEM forms server.

To copy an XDC file from your local file system to the AEM forms server:

Right-click the XDC file, and select Check In. See Workbench Help for more information about checking in resources into the AEM forms server.
