indesign supports special formatting attributes, let me embed reference paragraph, character, table, or cell style in xml file. when xml file imported , laid out, indesign uses referenced style format element. how convert < , > etc. aid namespace.

this input:

 <article>     <para>&lt;em&gt;eheniendel il &lt;strong&gt;evel&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;mos illanit atatur &lt;strong&gt;reptatiat&lt;/strong&gt;</para>     <para>os veles qui ne voluptaquam, quid qui &lt;strong&gt;rehendi&lt;/strong&gt;.</para>     <para>berchicide &lt;strong&gt;reperumet&lt;/strong&gt; ilicitatin &lt;em&gt;cus&lt;/em&gt;</para>     <para>dellabores ant. &lt;em&gt;arte&lt;/em&gt; dandae si &lt;strong&gt;rectur&lt;/strong&gt;?</para>     <para>am, voloribus doluptatem aut, &lt;em&gt;cor&lt;/em&gt; aut &lt;em&gt;conse&lt;/em&gt;</para> 

i need such output:

<article>     <para>         <em aid:cstyle="italic">eheniendel il <em aid:cstyle="bold-italic">evel</em>         </em>mos illanit atatur <em aid:cstyle="bold">reptatiat</em>     </para>     <para>os veles qui ne voluptaquam, quid qui <em aid:cstyle="bold">rehendi</em>.</para>     <para>berchicide <em aid:cstyle="bold">reperumet</em> ilicitatin <em aid:cstyle="italic">cus</em>     </para>     <para>dellabores ant. <em aid:cstyle="italic">arte</em> dandae si <em aid:cstyle="bold">rectur</em>?</para>     <para>am, voloribus doluptatem aut, <em aid:cstyle="italic">cor</em> aut <em aid:cstyle="italic">conse</em>     </para> </article> 

i need convert:

&lt;em&gt; <em aid:csytle = "italic"> &lt;strong&gt; <em aid:csytle = "bold"> &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;  <em aid:csytle = "bold-italic"> 

i made xslt 1.0 stylesheet works normal xml elements <em> end <strong>. how improve input?

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/xsl/transform" xmlns:aid="http://ns.adobe.com/adobeindesign/4.0/" xmlns:aid5="http://ns.adobe.com/adobeindesign/5.0/">  <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>  <xsl:template match="@* | node()">     <xsl:copy>         <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" />     </xsl:copy> </xsl:template>  <xsl:template match="/root">     <root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/xmlschema-instance"         xmlns:aid="http://ns.adobe.com/adobeindesign/4.0/"         xmlns:aid5="http://ns.adobe.com/adobeindesign/5.0/">         <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>     </root> </xsl:template>  <xsl:template match="strong">      <xsl:element name="em">           <xsl:attribute name="aid:cstyle">             <xsl:value-of select="'bold'"/>         </xsl:attribute>      <xsl:apply-templates/>        </xsl:element> </xsl:template>  <xsl:template match="em">     <xsl:element name="em">           <xsl:attribute name="aid:cstyle">             <xsl:value-of select="'italic'"/>         </xsl:attribute>         <xsl:apply-templates/>     </xsl:element> </xsl:template>  <xsl:template match="em[../../strong]|strong[../../em]">     <xsl:element name="em">         <xsl:attribute name="aid:cstyle">             <xsl:value-of select="'bold-italic'"/>         </xsl:attribute>         <xsl:apply-templates/>     </xsl:element> </xsl:template> 

the easiest solution perform 2 xsl transformations in series: first transformation do:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/xsl/transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/> <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>  <!-- identity transform --> <xsl:template match="@*|node()">     <xsl:copy>         <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>     </xsl:copy> </xsl:template>  <xsl:template match="para">     <xsl:copy>         <xsl:value-of select="." disable-output-escaping="yes"/>     </xsl:copy> </xsl:template>  </xsl:stylesheet> 

and save result file. second transformation apply stylesheet resulting file.

the alternative painful process of parsing escaped xml using string functions in recursive named template.
