There's nothing special to it. If you have internet access, it should be able to look up the DTD as soon as you open an XML file with the spring DTD header at the top, same as any other XML file.

Note that last time I used XMLBuddy (which was a good year and a half ago or so) it did cache dtd files on disk, so if a DTD version changed, and the DTD URI didn't change in step (as happens in the case of Spring, which always uses the same version), you needed to dig into XMLBuddy's cache under the plugin dir and manually update the dtd file.

To the best of my recollection:
XMLBuddy 2.0.72 (summer 2005) does not cache the DTDs, if the following setting is enabled:
Check in Window->Preferences->XMLBuddy->Cache->Enable network document cache.

Internet access should indeed be the only thing you need.

Open the file with "XMLBuddy", open the file properties and check that the DTD tab has "Follow DTD preferences(default)" selected.
