Generating a Printable Document based on Styles.
(Please excuse me if this isn't the correct place. this is my
first post. If I am in the wrong area - could someone point me
inth right direction)
Anyway - this is my problem.
I manage a User Guide for an Service Development Scripting Language that runs on my companies Telecoms Platform.
This Language is used by both Internal Development Staff to write call-flows and by Customers to develop thier own Applications.
My problem is this. Some of the commands in the language are
"only available internally" - in other words we don't want Customers to
see them.
Why is this a problem. Well I'd really like to just have one
Reference user Guide, rather than dragging the internal commands out to
a seperate Guide that owuldn't have the contextual information on the
Main Guide, and i'm not prepared to duplicate maintenance by hacing two
versions.
So what i thought was this: I would have 1 Master Document.
In that document some of the Sections would be marked, i was thinking
by using a different style and section headings.
Then the idea was a Macro would be run that:
- Saves the Existing Document.
- Takes a Copy of the Document
- Deletes all the information marked as "internal"
- And then if possible runs Distiller to PDF it - but that can be done manually.
So my questions are:
- Is this possible?
- If so - does anyone have ANY idea how i'd go about it? A resource of code that does somethign similar or whatever.
- OR - does anyone have any other suggestions on how to achieve this.
