RE: Re: [xsl] Generating barcode SVG-files

I'll confess that what I know about barcodes in just a little bit more that what I need to scan groceries at a supermarket checkout counter. With that caveat in mind, it seems to me that you will want to use an <xsl:result-document> to produce each of the series of files you want to generate.

In order to do this you will have to move to XSLT 2.0. Download a copy of Michael Kay's SaxonB.

It's better because <xsl:document> is used to create an intermediate document upon which you intend to do further processing in the same transformation. Of course, if you don't intend to output multiple documents from a single transformation, it's hard to see why you would use it at all.

I would like to generate 100.000 barcodes (2to5 interleave, that 
represents a number). The way that I planned to do that is to read out a 
number  X from a database, and make barcodes for X, X+1, X+2 .......... 
X+99999 and dump each barcode to a X.svg, X+1.svg..... files. My 
previous example was not very good, sorry for that.
