Docbook to DITA conversion


David Hollis
 

Hi,

Does anyone have a Docbook to DITA conversion script that creates DITA topics for each Docbook section, and creates a map too? If it’s possible to flag each Docbook section as C/T/R, then that would be fantastic!

Many thanks,
David

Hi David,

If you have access to Oxygen, you could give the Batch Documents Converter add-on a try:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/25.0/ug-editor/topics/batch-converter-addon.html

We've used it for converting a bunch of Word application notes to DITA and it did a surprisingly good job, given our source material.

Hi David,

As you are using Oxygen from what I remember maybe you can try to install and use our Batch Documents Converter add-on:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/batch-converter-addon.html

It can generate as you want a DITA map with topics from a DocBook XML document.

Regards,

Last year I used oxygen to take the darktable documentation from docbook > dita > markdown very effectively! Oxygen does an excellent job.
