XSL Transform Format | N/A | Data Files |
The XSLT file extension is utilized to identify an XSL Transformation file. These files are used to specify an XML transformation from the XML source document to another document. This format is based on the Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) standard, which is developed by the World Wide Web Consortium. XSLT documents can be used to convert an XML document format into other file types, such as HTML, text, or other XML document formats.
XSLT Documents
XSLT documents are composed of XSL instructions and enabling behaviors for the given XML source document. This commands are then utilized by agents that have the ability to interpret the commands and perform the indicated transformations. The Microsoft.net Framework, Apache Ant, and SAXON, among others, provide support for these files.
Related Files
XSLT files are related to several other types of files, such as XML, XLSTX, and XSLFO. To create a new XSL Transformation file, it is recommended that you use specialized software such as Microsoft Visual Studio, or a general text editor such as Notepad++.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
Programs for LINUX system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .XSLT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .XSLT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .XSLT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .XSLT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .XSLT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .XSLT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .XSLT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .XSLT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .XSLT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .XSLT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
