bluk DITA-to-Json conversion

Hi folks,
I've got a team who wants to convert an immense volume of DITA content into Json for the purposes of using it for a machine learning project. Is there a way of accessing the DITA-to-Json tool from the command line?
Thanks,
Jeff.

Using CSS to create drop-down menus for element attributes

Hi folks, My company's DITA publishing process makes heavy use of outputclass values in order to define custom conditions for the publishing scripts. The outputclass values are NOT part of the schema and should not be, however, this means that users are defining them manually and introducing errors....

Scripting a multi-step search and replace

Hi folks, I've got roughly 200 different character entities that I need to search for and replace with different entities across a document set of roughly 15000 topics. Is there any way of defining the search/replace terms as a set of comma separated values or something for the multi-file search fea...

Image wizard injecting unwanted path information into the href value

When I use the Image Wizard feature in a DITA topic, I frequently simply paste in or type in the href value instead of manually navigating to the image and selecting it. In Author 20.1 and previous, this worked. In version 21.1, when I try to use that workflow, the image wizard autopopulates the ful...

XSLT-available Parameter for current directory in refactoring tool

Hi folks, I'm using the refactoring tool to process huge multi-level directory structure of XML. I'd like to use the result-document xslt process to create a number of sub-files from each existing file and dump the new files into the same directory as the file currently being processed. Is there a b...

Re: Content completion for specialized table row

Ok, so just make sure I'm not misunderstanding this, it sounds like you're saying that the only way to add the "add row" feature to my table specializations in Oxygen is to literally write my own custom Java classes and add them to the configuration. Correct? I can do that, but it seems in...

Re: Content completion for specialized table row

Ok, so let's try this again. Currently, Author does recognize and validate my specializations. However, when I try to use the Add Row command, Author responds by by adding a whole new tbody element at the bottom of the table and adding a conventional CALS row within it. From poking around in the .fr...

Re: Content completion for specialized table row

Thanks Radu,

For the record, I was asking about documentation for the elements of your framework files (actionMode, serializableOrderedMap, etc.) not DITA. There's lots of help available for DITA.

Cheers,
Jeff.

Content completion for specialized table row

Hi folks, First question; is there a guide to the schema for your framework files? When I google element names I come up dry; even when I search your site for information about elements I come up dry. Second, I'm trying to create a content completion template for a specialized table row. This is wha...

Re: XML-processing hotspot

Hi Radu, Well, what I meant was "written in java, then inserted into the authoring interface with CSS". I'm used to writing addons for XMLmind and I"m still very much coming up to speed with modifying Oxygen. I don't really want to add yet another interface for my authors to deal with...

XML-processing hotspot

Hi, I'm starting the process of specing an add-on for Oxygen which will provide the following service: when deployed into the interface via CSS, it will create an element-based hotspot target upon which I can drag-and-drop an XML file. Upon being dropped, an xpath statement will find a specific elem...

Is it possible to know which framework is being used for the current document?

Hi folks, I'm doing some framework development and running into multiple issues, but one of the bedrock problems is that I can't tell when the sample document that I've got loaded into Author is using my custom framework, so I don't know if the problems that I'm seeing are with my framework the lack...

Re: "Cannot load the associated CSS files" in Web Author

Yes, the missing slash was a typo. Could you point out *where* the association rules are stored in the dita plugin? I've searched it stem to stern and everywhere where this is a reference to the functioning ID, there is also a reference to the non-functioning ID. There is no reference to Public URIs...

Curating the list of elements available in Author mode

Hi folks,

Is it possible to configure Oxygen to present only a curated list of the available elements when working in Author mode? I would really like to cut down on the number of options my author have to deal with but I don't want to start hacking the schema.

Thanks,
Jeff.
