DITA Logging Set to 'Always': No Console Output

Post by dsmith1690 »

I'm using an Ant project file to run a custom PDF2 transform. I'm not getting any log output to the console even though in Preferences > DITA > Logging I have "Show console output" set to "Always" and I've got every message type selected. I'm running Oxygen v.25.0. Any ideas why I'm not getting console output?

Well it appears that I found the answer: in the transformation scenario under "Output" there's a second "Show console output" that needs to have "Always" selected.

Hi,

This is correct, ANT transformation scenarios are not DITA transformation scenarios so they do not depend on DITA specific settings like the "DITA Logging" preferences page. DITA-specific transformation scenarios are based on ANT transformation scenarios and they have some DITA-related settings on the side.
