Integrate/Install DITA-OT Plugins Transformation

Oxygen XML Author comes bundled with a transformation scenario designed to integrate DITA-OT plugins. These DITA-OT plugins are used for various customizations. It is called Integrate/Install DITA-OT Plugins and is found in the DITA Map section of the

Configure Transformation Scenario(s) dialog box.

Attention:

The integration will be performed on the DITA-OT version specified in the DITA Open Toolkit section of the DITA preferences page.

CAUTION:

Oxygen XML Author support engineers do not officially offer support and troubleshooting assistance for custom DITA-OT distributions or custom installed DITA-OT plugins. If you discover any issues or inconsistent behavior while using a custom DITA-OT or a DITA-OT that contains custom DITA-OT plugins, you should revert to the default built-in DITA-OT.

Running the Transformation Scenario

To integrate a DITA-OT plugin, follow these steps:

If Oxygen XML Author was installed in the default location, you may need to restart and run it as an administrator.
Select the Apply Transformation Scenario(s) or Configure Transformation Scenario(s) action from the DITA Maps Manager toolbar (you could also use the same action on the main toolbar or open the Transformation Scenarios view).
Select the Integrate/Install DITA-OT Plugins transformation scenario. If the integrator is not visible, select the Show all scenarios action that is available in the Settings drop-down menu.
Apply the scenario.
Check the Results panel at the bottom of the application to make sure the build was successful.
Restart Oxygen XML Author with your normal permissions.
