Figure 5.11 displays a simplified view of a Transformer settings file that will
be used to describe the file in detail.
Figure 5.11 Simplified XML Transformer Settings File
• Line 1 is always the XML declaration that describes the XML version
and encoding used. This must not be modified.
• Line 2 contains a start tag that is the beginning of the container of all
transformers in the file. It must have a matching end tag (line 107).

Line numbers apply only to this example—they will vary for other settings
files. What is important is the XML start and end tags for each section.
