Temp directory must be an absolute path error

Hello, We are getting the following PDF with XSL-FO transformation error using Oxygen 23.1 with the DITA-OT3x that is bundled with it: "Transformation failed. C:\Users\username\OneDrive - Varex Imaging\Documents\Oxygen XML Editor 23\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT3.x\plugins\org.dita.base\build_init.xm...

HTML5 output and locktitle behavior

I'm transforming DITA to HTML5 and I have noticed that the locktitle attribute works on the top-level topics, but not the second-level topics in my navigation tree. For example, I have the following structure: Part 1. Introduction to X (locktitle=yes) Chapter 1. Getting Started (locktitle=yes) The o...

Eclipse Help transformation scenario

Hello, I am having difficulty finding information about the DITAMAP Eclipse Help transformation for Oxygen 19.1. Can you point me to it? I looked in the Oxygen Editor help, but though it is mentioned as one of the available transformation scenarios, there isn't any information about how it works as ...

Task labels in HTML5 output

Hello, I'd like to change the "Before you begin" task label to "Prerequisites" in HTML5 output from DITA. I am using Oxygen 19, DITA-OT 2.4.4 that was installed with Oxygen. Where does this string get pulled from for HTML5 output? I noticed a few of the plugins have localization ...

Re: Files in temp directory

Ok, I built each section individually and was able to locate the source of the problem. There were some references within references that were causing the issue. Thanks.

Files in temp directory

Hello, I have a project from which I build 2 manuals using Oxygen 19.0 and the DITA-OT 2.4.4. In the temp directory after building one of the manuals, there are 34 files that belong only to the other manual. They are definitely not in the map I'm building from. They are listed in the hreftargets.lis...

Re: Table row background color output class not working with DITA-OT 2.3.3

Hi Radhu,

Well, it was a small error in my syntax. I put spaces between the outputclass and the single quotes: @outputclass, ' bluerow '. Removing them fixed the issue.

Thanks again.

Re: Table row background color output class not working with DITA-OT 2.3.3

Hi, Thanks for such a quick response. Yes, I'm migrating from 1.8 to 2.3.3, and all has gone well except for this issue. I think the template is still being called because it is in the tables.xsl in the DITA-OT for 2.3.3 and it's active, but I'll try your suggestion just to be safe. I'll keep poking...

Table row background color output class not working with DITA-OT 2.3.3

Hello, For some reason, code that works fine with DITA-OT 1.8 doesn't seem to work with DITA-OT 2.3.3. In both instances I'm using the FO processor and the DITA-OTs that come with Oxygen 18. I have the following code in my customization to set the background color of a row to either grey or blue bas...

Hello, I recently upgraded to Oxygen 18 and am using DITA-OT 1.8 for now. In my validation results, I now get the following message for links that I was reusing via my content reference file, which is also embedded in the map, so I can use it for conkeyrefs as well: Description: Topic "operator...

Re: keyref page numbers

Hi Radhu, I figured out how to turn on page numbers for cross-references where the author has entered the text to display in the output link. I'll post it here in case anyone else needs it. 1. In your customization, add the links.xml file to the fo\xsl directory, and add the appropriate import state...

Re: keyref page numbers

Thanks Radhu, I think I've found the XSLT template that I need to change to get page numbers for the xrefs with author-entered text. For the keyrefs, I have a couple in my front matter that do not produce page numbers, though the links build fine and work in the output. I am currently using Oxygen 1...

Re: keyref page numbers

Hi Radu, Sorry for the confusion. I'm actually talking about both xrefs and keyrefs. As you mentioned, when I put custom text into the xref, the page number is not displayed in the output. Is there a way to make it display the page number? For keyrefs, I don't get a page number at all, regardless of...

keyref page numbers

Hello, Is there a way to add page numbers to keyrefs in the PDF output? How about to xrefs that use text input by the writer instead of pulling the title of the topic? I have looked through links.xsl and found the insertPageNumberCitation template, and I can see where the text, "on page" g...
