New to DITA - where to start editing stylesheets

Post by kmank »

I am new to DITA - more precisely to modifying the styles for PDF output (headings, paragraphs, etc).

If I use the DITA Map PDF (Idiom FO Plugin) scenario, what files would I need to locate to start modifications?

Thanks for any help!!

Hello,

The XSLT stylesheets that generate the XSL-FO styles are located in ${frameworks}\dita\DITA-OT\demo\fo\xsl\fo where ${frameworks} is the frameworks subfolder of the Oxygen install folder. (${frameworks} is also an editor variable available for the configuration of transformation scenarios, validation scenarios, custom engines, external tools, etc.) You should start from topic2fo_shell_1.0.xsl and i18n-postprocess.xsl.


Regards,
Sorin
