SaveXmlDataOnly class

saveXmlDataOnly (Only Save Custom XML Markup)

This element specifies that the contents of this document shall be saved as an XML file containing only the custom XML markup in this document in its regular form. The resulting document does not conform to /IEC 29500 (i.e. this is an export-only save option for a WordprocessingML document).

[Rationale: This setting is typically used to extract custom XML markup from a WordprocessingML document for further processing by XML-enabled applications. end rationale]

If this element is omitted, then the contents of the entire document (not just custom XML markup) should be saved according to the definition of WordprocessingML in /IEC 29500.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document which should be saved as an XML file containing only its custom XML markup. This requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML fragment in the document settings:

<w:saveXmlDataOnly w:val="true"/>

The saveXmlDataOnly element's val attribute has a value of true specifying that only custom XML must be saved into a regular XML file when saving this document. For example, the document body formerly looked like this:

<w:body>
  <w:p>
    <w:customXml w:element="root" w:namespaceuri="urn:example">
      <w:r>
        <w:t>Hello world</w:t>
      </w:r>
    </w:customXml>
  </w:p>
</w:body>

The presence of this element specifies that the resulting document only contains the custom Xml markup, resulting in the following:

<ns0:root xmlns:ns0="urn:example">Hello world</ns0:root>

end example]

This element’s content model is defined by the common boolean property definition in §17.17.4.
