files
Description
Container tag for all
file
tags.
Attributes
{xml:lang}, {default-file-type}
xml:lang
Specifies the language for the group of files. Extension Manager compares this
language with the user language, which is determined by the process outlined in
defaultLanguage
on
page
12
. If the languages match, the files are installed; if not, the files are
ignored. If Extension Manager can't determine the user language, it copies all files regardless of
their specified language.
For more information, see
Creating multilingual extension packages (version 2.1 and
later)
on
page
54
.
default-file-type
Specifies the type of files wrapped in the
files
tag. Valid values are
"
csxs
", "
plugin
" and "
ordinary
". The value "
csxs
" flags the file as a CS extension package. For
more information, refer to
Creating Hybrid Extension packages (version 5.0 only)
on
page
57
. The value "
plugin
" flags the file as a plug-in. For more information, refer to
Creating plug-in extension packages for InDesign CS5 and InCopy CS5 (version
5.0 only)
on
page
58
. The default value is "
ordinary
". If you specify "ordinary" the files will be
packaged up without any special processing into an ordinary extension. Use the "ordinary" flag
for all Extensions for CS4 or earlier releases.

Description

Note:

don’t rely on the Adobe application to automatically add objects and commands to its menus. See
menu-insert
for
details.
