... You didn't say which level of toolkit you are using, so I will assume that you are at the latest, DITA-OT 1.0.1, Mike. From a command shell opened in that...
Indi, It seems to me like you want to change the basic topic. The cleaner solution seems to be to create a specialisation of topic and then specialise your...
Hi Indi, At Adobe we used domain specialization to specialize the metadata element to adobemetadata, for similar purposes. Because we use Framemaker as our...
I have just run Ant to build samples.pdf using DITA-OT1.0.1, and the resulting folder (output/samples/pdf) contains only one file (sequence.fo) along with a...
