Spectra Precision JXL Style Sheet Converter

Version 1.2
Users Guide

The Spectra Precision JXL Style Sheet Converter application is used to convert Survey Pro data files to JXL
and apply a style sheet to produce custom reports from job file data. The Style Sheet Converter
application supports both Survey Pro version 5 files (.SURVEY), and Survey Pro version 4 (.JOB/.RAW)
files.
Steps to use the Spectra Precision JXL Style Sheet Converter application:

1) Select the Input File: You can tap the [Browse] button to navigate to any .SURVEY or .JOB/.RAW
file. You can also drag and drop a .SURVEY or a .JOB/.RAW file into the Input File edit field.
Note: If you choose either a Survey Pro version .JOB file or a Survey Pro version 4 .RAW file, then
the application will automatically use the file pair (.JOB/.RAW) if both files exist in the input
directory.




2) Select the Output Method: You can choose one of two output methods.
Apply style sheet(s) and save output: This option will convert the input file to a
temporary Job XML (.JXL) file, then apply the selected style sheets and save the
resulting files. The temporary .JXL file is not saved in this procedure.
Convert to Job XML and save .JXL file: This option will convert the input file to a Job
XML file, and save the JXL file.
Note: In both cases, the output files are stored in a directory in the same location as the
input file, and named after the input file. For example, if your input file was C:\My
Documents\Survey Files\MySurvey.survey, then all of the output for that input file
would be stored in C:\My Documents\Survey Files\MySurvey\*.*
Note: The output files for style sheet conversions are named after the survey file and the
style sheet. For example, if your input file was MySurvey.survey, and you applied the
style sheet Observation Report.xsl, then the output file would automatically be named
MySurvey_Observation Report.htm. If a file already exists with the automatic default
name, you will be prompted to give the output file a new name, or you can overwrite the
existing file.



3) Select a style sheet if your output method is Apply style sheet(s) and save output.
a. Select the directory where your style sheets are installed. You can tap the [Browse]
button or you can drag and drop a folder into the Style Sheet Location edit box.
b. Select a style sheet to use. You can select an individual style sheet to produce one
report, or you can choose All Style Sheets in Folder to generate multiple reports for a
single input file.





4) Tap [Apply] to launch the conversion and save the outputs. You can choose to Open file(s) with
viewer if you wish to automatically launch the output files with their default viewer.
