When they say EDI format - I would think that they are expecting it to be 
in ANSI X.12 format. 

You might start at www.x12.org

Saying "in EDI format" is about as precise as saying "in ASCII". You need 
to ask them what format they want.

"EDI" means "Electronic Data Integration" (or something like that). All it 
means is sending business data from one computer system to another 
computer system. It doesn't necessarily involve XML (our company has 
hundreds of business partners and none of them send or receive data in 
XML).
