if you have a space in the filename like "npc file", then that is exactly how you need to refer to it when you load it.

tailor/ATTACH/xmldialog,npcfile

is not the same as

tailor/ATTACH/xmldialog,npc file

[xmledit is a utility for creating and editing xmldialogs.
Once you create or edit an xmldialog, you have the option to save that information out to a file.
You do that from within the [xmledit gump. Look for the "Save to File" dialog at the bottom of the [xmledit gump.

Once you have saved the xmldialog information out to a file, you can load that file into a spawned npc using a spawner entry like the one you showed.

Escortablemage/ATTACH/xmldialog,npcfile

"npcfile" is the name of the file that you saved earlier.

You do not need to use [xmedit on the spawner.

Once you spawn the npc using the spawn entry above, try use [xmledit on the npc to see the dialog information that has been attached to it.

Then you can modify and save that information using [xmledit on the npc as many times as you like and then just respawn the npc.
