Property file in pdf transformation scenario

[jdonges]

Hi,

I have a PDF2 transformation with a property file, in the DITA OT call there is a parameter

Code: Select all

\bin\dita.bat ... --propertyfile=<name>

When I set up a transformation scenario in Oxygen and add this to the parameter section, it generates a dita call with

Code: Select all

-Dpropertyfile=<name>

It puts a D in front of it so the file is not used.
I think the D prefix is the syntax for setting single ant properties in the dita call.
Is there a way to use the property values from a file instead?

Best regards,
Jörn

Hi Jörn,

In order to use a properties file in Oxygen you need to prefix it with '--':

You will see that the parameter is correctly set in the console:

Code: Select all

--propertyfile "C:\path\to\pdf2.properties"
