Setting Up a Configuration File

The Template Builder can be used with a BI Publisher configuration file.

The configuration file must be named xdoconfig.xml and must be stored in the config directory (example path: C:\Program Files\Oracle\BI Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\config) under the BI Publisher directory.

Alternatively, you can use the file name xdo.cfg, which is used by the BI Publisher server. The configuration file allows you to:

  • Define additional fonts such as Windings to test the templates

  • Use security settings for PDF files

See the appendix Configuration File Reference in Administrator's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher for the syntax of the configuration file.
