Hi Ben, If a RelaxNG-based plugin is acceptable to you, you could have a look at make_dita_grammar.pl: https://github.com/chrispy-snps/DITA-plugin-utilities#make_dita_grammarpl See here for some examp

Hi Ray, It's just because we use RelaxNG DITA grammars here. The approach should work equally well if you are using DTD grammars. - Chris

Hi Ray, To confirm, you are using PDF Chemistry for publishing, correct? We use RelaxNG grammars here (because we develop specializations with this utility), but the pagination approach does not requi

Hi Ilham, I tried to do a similar thing a couple years ago - remove a <draftintro> topic from a bookmap when args.draft == no. I found that profiling attributes have dedicated machinery to remove filt

Hi Yves, The dita transformation format (dita -f dita) might get you pretty close. It produces normalized DITA. There might be some attributes/elements that you might need to clean up. One of these da

Hi Tim, Is this what you're trying to do? I attached a testcase you can play with. - Chris

Hi Radu, This is pretty cool. I will share it with my team. Thanks! - Chris

Hi Tim, What was the missing step that made it work as expected? - Chris

#conditional-processing #branch-filtering

Hi Radu, Thank yous for filing that! Our writers will happily drag-and-drop anything from the DITA Maps Manager into an editing window that Oxygen allows them. :) They won't necessarily be aware of wh

Hi everyone, I confirmed that map-level inclusions of submaps via keyref are processed correctly: <mapref href="..." keys="some_map" processing-role="resource-only"/> ... <mapref keyref="some_map"/> S

I attached a testcase, if anyone wants to experiment: - Chris

We have a book with a preface submap, like this: I thought an <xref> to the preface submap would take me to the beginning of the content for that submap, but it does not. Given the following DITA topi

Hi everyone, The difference between URLs, URIs, and URNs has always been a little fuzzy to me. I came across the following Reddit post in /r/programming: https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/

Hi Sheena, DITA provides lots of flexibility for many element types to be conditional, so the answer depends on what actually changes for each product. If only a product name is changing and everythin

Hi Eliot, Thanks for sharing how the new deliverable-anchor stuff works! We use @deliveryTarget for format-specific filtering. Would this also work? <topicref keys=”topic-1-use-2” href=”topics/topic-1

Hi Brian, We do this with regular variable definitions in each individual map: <keydef keys="Version"> <topicmeta> <keywords> <keyword>v1.3</keyword> </keywords> </topicmeta> </keydef> then uses of th

Hi everyone, I initially posted this to the DITA-OT Users group, but I am cross-posting here for folks who aren't on that list. We are starting to use DITA-OT project files: DITA-OT documentation - Pu

Hi Kris, We are not currently using action="passthrough", but we are aware of its existence and we like knowing that at-delivery use of the information is available, if needed. - Chris

#DITAVAL

Hi Ed, The new testcase is much easier to understand, thank you! And I'm glad the simplification process helped resolve the ghost links issue. My understanding was the same as yours - I did not think

#reltable

Hi Pati, In CSS, "A > B" means "element B contained directly within element A". But to apply multiple selectors to the same element, you want to directly concatenate them like this: *[class ~= "topic/
