Abstract: An XML processing system for use in a barcode printer apparatus includes a computer system operatively coupled to the barcode printer apparatus. The computer system further includes an XML processor configured to receive, parse, and process an XML input data stream and obtain schema identified in the XML data stream from a schema repository. The XML processor validates the XML data stream based upon the schema obtained. Also included is an XSLT processor configured to obtain a stylesheet identified in the XML data stream from a stylesheet repository. The XSLT processor transforms data in the XML input data stream into transformed XML data based upon the stylesheet obtained. Also, an XSLFO processor formats the transformed XML data into formatted XML data based upon XSLFO instructions contained in the stylesheet. A barcode rendering subsystem then receives the formatted XML data and generates a bit map representative of the bar code label.

Abstract: An XML system is configured to print bar code labels, tags, tickets, cards, or other media, and/or encode RFID devices embedded in media, based upon an extensible markup language (XML) input data stream. The XML system includes a computer system having a memory subsystem, a communication interface operatively coupled to a network, an XML processor configured to receive and process the XML input data stream, and an extensible stylesheet language transformation (XSLT) processor configured to either obtain a stylesheet identified in the XML data stream or obtain the stylesheet from a stylesheet repository. The XSLT processor transforms data in the XML input data stream into transformed XML data based upon the stylesheet obtained. Also included is an extensible stylesheet language formatting object (XSLFO) processor configured to format the transformed XML data into formatted XML data based upon XSLFO instructions contained in the stylesheet, and a rendering subsystem configured to receive the formatted XML data and generate a printable representation of the bar code label, tag, ticket, card, other media, and/or generate encoding information for an RFID device.

Abstract translation: 基于可扩展标记语言（XML）输入数据流，XML系统被配置为打印条形码标签，标签，票证，卡或其他媒体，和/或编码嵌入在媒体中的RFID设备。 所述XML系统包括具有存储器子系统，可操作地耦合到网络的通信接口，被配置为接收和处理所述XML输入数据流的XML处理器的计算机系统，以及可扩展样式表语言变换（XSLT）处理器，其被配置为获得 在XML数据流中标识的样式表，或从样式表存储库获取样式表。 XSLT处理器根据获得的样式表将XML输入数据流中的数据转换为转换的XML数据。 还包括可扩展样式表语言格式化对象（XSLFO）处理器，其被配置为基于包含在样式表中的XSLFO指令将经转换的XML数据格式化为格式化的XML数据;以及呈现子系统，被配置为接收格式化的XML数据并生成可打印的表示 条形码标签，标签，票证，卡片，其他媒体，和/或生成RFID设备的编码信息。
