SGML Visual DTD entity reference file

File type category:
Various data file

Date updated: September 27, 2026

SGML Visual DTD uses this file to support entity references in SGML document type definitions and related documents. Entity references allow commonly used text or other replacement content to be defined once and referenced where needed.

SGML was designed for sharing machine-readable documents in large government, legal and industrial projects that needed to remain readable for several decades. It was also used extensively in printing and publishing. One of its first major applications was the second edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, which was and is wholly marked up using SGML-like markup. Its complexity limited its use for small-scale general-purpose applications.

How to open erf file?

Open the file with SGML Visual DTD when it is needed as part of an SGML project. Because an ERF file is text-based, a plain-text editor can also be used to inspect it, but changing its entity definitions may affect documents or DTDs that reference them.

How to convert erf file?

An ERF file is a supporting SGML resource rather than a standalone document, so it normally has no useful conversion target. Preserve it with the related DTD and SGML documents, or edit its entity declarations as SGML text when adapting the project to another compatible SGML tool.
