How to create a DITA-OT transformation scenario that has a

[mpeters-pivotal]

Hi,

Sorry if this question has been answered. I searched the archives, but couldn't isolate a manageable list to follow using keywords.

I purchased a DITA-OT plugin from Suite Solutions that produces a WML (XML) file as the output. Now, I'd like to create a DITA-OT transformation scenario to generate output from a ditamap in Author. So, I duplicated the DITA Map Eclipse Help scenario, pointed it to my DITA-OT directory, and added a transtype parameter with the correct value. Author produces the WML file in the out/eclipsehelp directory, but also produces an error stating that the Eclipse Help can't be opened.

Is there a better way to integrate a plugin that produces XML output?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

After the publishing is done using the DITA Open Toolkit, Oxygen tries to open the output file but as it does not know anything about the new transtype it does not know exactly what file to open.
If you edit the transformation scenario again in Oxygen, in the Output tab there is an "Output file" section in which the field Other location can be set by you to a specific path to open after the publishing like for example:

${cfd}/out/wml/outputFileName.wml
