[oXygen-user] Looking for a creative solution for an image report

[Eliot Kimber]

If you use the DITA for Publishers HTML2, EPUB, or HTML5 transform it will
generate a "graphic copy" Ant script that lists all things referenced by
<image>. It will not handle references from within SVGs, although that's an
interesting use case and one that the D4P code could be made to handle. (The
EPUB transform is bundled with later versions of Oxygen).

The logic that finds all graphic references could be used in isolation to
produce the graphic report you're looking for.  The XSLT to look at is:

net.sourceforge.dita4publishers.common.xslt/xsl/map2graphicMap.xsl

This takes a (resolved) map and processes it and all topics referenced to
find all references to graphics and objects (<image> and <object>). The
result is an XML "graphic map" that maps graphic source URIs to output URIs
(where the graphic should be copied to in the output).

It doesn't look like it would be too hard to extend this code to handle
references within inline or referenced SVG.

Cheers,

E.
