Hi Chris, I suggest using the dita2dita plugin that comes bundled with DITA-OT and then extending it with a mapping of your changes as a “system interoperability” plugin output. (You can use the plugi

Hi Cud, I’ll comment on this problem statement: “”” Enterprise A offers to send Enterprise B their prepared source every week, so Enterprise B can produce their branded output -- PDFs and HTML that co

Hi Eliot, We have teams using Electricflow. It automates tasks against a VM hosting a DITA-OT environment. When a user submits content to Perforce, that triggers an Electricflow procedure to run the D

Thanks, Radu. I ended up experimenting with inserting an XSLT target after the preprocess step and before the PDF-specific ANT targets in the plugin. The XSLT transforms the ditamap in temp to a bookm

Hi Yves, Have you considered building a Schematron file with your patterns? You could use this to match certain criteria and then apply an XSLT when necessary. Take care,- Nick Sent from mobile

Hi! We’re using ditamaps, not bookmaps. Is there a simple way to tell the pdf plugin to render all first-level topics as a chapter? We’d like for a regular ditamap to publish like a bookmap with chapt

Thanks, Chris. I experimented a bit and it turns out that fop is a bit more sensitive than ah for logical errors in the attribute sets. All good now. Your suggestion on testing with a different versio

Hi Ann, We gather analytics on some of our webhelp outputs. You’ll need to set up your GA account and include a script tag in the header or footer of each page that points to one of your account’s tra

Hi Steve, The preprocess (or preprocess2) task should push ditamap metadata to the topics as part of the element. You can review the temp files to see how that transfers to the xml files for the xhtml

You can use xref with type=fn to reference a footnote the second time. Take care,- Nick Sent from mobile

Hi, I’d like to get the original value of args.input and then create a new file with a few changes, and then redefine args.input with the new file location for all future ANT targets in that publish.

Hi Danielle, Without using a key for this dynamic content, the subject scheme will likely always throw an error because that specific value does not exist in your subject scheme. Have you considered e

Hi Danielle, Have you considered using Schematron instead of a subject scheme? We do something like this for a variety of elements. Take care,- Nick Sent from mobile

Hi Yves, Have you tried adding an XML fragment using the webhelp.fragment.head runtime parameter? -Dwebhelp.fragment.headIn the generated output it inserts a given XHTML fragment in the element. The v

Hi! The org.dita.normalize plugin encounters a pipeline error on any key definitions with an href to a webpage. Here’s an example: <keydef keys=“web_python” href=“http://www.python.org” format=“html”
