APT into HTML without sidebar/header/footer

[Trevor Harmon]

Hi,

I have some documents authored in APT that get bundled with the  
project web site when doing "mvn site". This transforms the APTs into  
separate HTML files, but each one has a copy of the site's sidebar,  
header, and footer. This is fine when viewing the document as part of  
the site, but if I want to, say, email one of the documents to an  
outside party, it will include this extraneous information that they  
don't want to see. So, I need to generate a version of the HTML  
without all the site-specific stuff. What's the best way to do this?  
Will I have to write a script to invoke doxia-converter or aptconvert  
explicitly? If so, how would I integrate that script into the Maven  
project? Thanks,

Trevor

Hi,

The best way is to create a skin [1] with a new Velocity file [2].

Cheers,

Vincent
