Hi Simcha,

I followed the same steps and I don't see an error. Do you still see it? if not, maybe it was a temporary issue that they already fixed.

Thanks Cosmin! Can you let us know the issue ID?

Hi Christina,

Thank you for your support!

Hi Radu,

I did not realize the limitations of DOTJ031I when I asked for it to be included in the "Transformation problems" summary. I wonder if it should be un-included again until it is a more reliable indicator?

Hi everyone,

I filed the following DITA-OT issue:

#4048: Warn about profiled DITA content that is not affected by any DITAVAL filtering rule

Hi Christina, Radu, Our reason for asking that Oxygen include DOTJ031I messages in the summary was to avoid profiled content not covered by any DITAVAL rule from accidentally being published to customers. Depending on the content, this could be serious. And with complex content reuse, this is diffic...

Hi kj_rk,

Do you use DITA-OT project files and profiling contexts? If so, you might also be interested in this enhancement:

Consider DITA-OT project file contexts in "Validate and Check for Completeness"

A testcase is included. To run,

1. Open the project file.
2. Open the map file.
3. Run Validate and Check for Completeness.

Our writers make heavy use of content reuse and profiling conditions. Consider the following example: oxygen_validate_contexts.png Note that The Product variable has multiple definitions, but only one is active at a time. The warehouse topic has a reference to a "featureC" topic that is no...

Thanks Adrian!

The peer map variable check is implemented in both the editor and in Validate and Check for Completeness:


So it would be good if this new cross-reference check could behave consistently.

In a map with the following peer map reference: <mapref href="peer_map.ditamap" keyscope="peer_map" processing-role="resource-only" scope="peer"/> let's say I have a topic with a variable reference and topic reference into the peer map: <p>Reference to peer ma...

Hi Julien,

Can you let us know the issue ID for PDF compression? Thanks!

Hi Dan,

Variables are a basic feature of DITA. They can be indeed conditionalized with profiling conditions as you are asking. You should be able to search for "DITA variables" and find many resources and examples. For example,

Hi Luodan,

You might want to try the "DITA-mini-toc-element" plugin I mentioned earlier. I think it automatically does what you are doing manually.

Hi Wladimir, The "Java returned: 1" error means that the transformation failed, but it doesn't tell you anything about why the transformation failed. To figure that out, you'll need to look at the transformation log to see what went wrong. After the transformation runs, you should see a lo...

For me, the most troubling finding is that browsers do not display PNG files referenced by SVG files referenced in HTML files (or I am doing something wrong). For example, I tried out the example here: SVG: Scalable Vector Graphics > SVG element reference > <image> > Example in which the SVG file is...

I created a testcase that tests various types of PNG references from SVG images: <image> SVG file reference to PNG file on disk <svg-container> embedded SVG reference to PNG file on disk <image> SVG file reference to base64-encoded PNG <svg-container> embedded SVG reference to base64-encoded PNG Her...

Hi Radu, For the arrowhead bug, Inkscape reopened the issue in a different category here: Inkscape #3935: Cannot prevent arrowheads from using `orient="auto-start-reverse"` so hopefully there will be a proper fix without the need to patch Batik to handle something noncompliant. The workaro...

Hi Radu, gbv34, We would find this feature useful as well. I replied to the DITA-OT pull request to add my support for it. In the meantime, hopefully the Inkscape folks can also fix this issue, which makes the Batik SVG renderer unhappy: Inkscape issue #7814: Cannot prevent arrowheads from using `or...

Hi luodan, Normally this is what the TOC (PDF) or navigation (WebHelp) is for. However, if you are trying to add just a local "mini-TOC" list of links to your parent introduction topic, you could try the following plugin: https://github.com/chrispy-snps/DITA-mini-toc-element although I see...

Hi Harry,

Thanks for the suggestion! Writers sometimes do this for larger books when publishing review builds from Oxygen on their Windows laptops. But some of our help collections have dozens of PDFs, and it is not practical to do this for so many files.

Hi Julien, Does this mean that there is no way to control the preprocessing memory limit or PDF Chemistry subprocess memory limit when running DITA transformations from a DITA-OT project file transformation? image.png For a DITA-OT project file transformation, if the DITA-OT transformation is invoke...

If I have <topichead> navigation hierarchy in my map, the WebHelp breadcrumbs and left-side TOC include the heading names: image.png but the search results do not: image.png This enhancement request is to include the full navigation hierarchy path in the search results breadcrumbs. Please let us kno...

Hi Julien, In addition to reporting available memory at the beginning, is it also possible to report peak memory usage at the end? This would be faster (and more reliable!) than deriving values using trial-and-error with very large documents! I cannot seem to pass this parameter to PDF Chemistry del...

We have topics that are reused in multiple books. Books apply different profiling conditions so that these reused topics include only the content relevant to that book: <topic id="topic_shared"> <title>My Shared Topic</title> <body> <p>This is some text.</p> <p product="A">For de...

Hi Julien, This is good information! So the PDF Chemistry transformation internally calls a Java subprocess, and this Java subprocess sometimes needs additional memory provided. Can you confirm that -Xmx must still provide enough memory for regular DITA-OT preprocessing up through merged map creatio...

Hi Radu,

Also, do you recall the details of why this buildId value was needed? At least within our team, we cannot recall any previous situations where this was required, but maybe it was specific to some server or CDN (content delivery network) that might not apply to our configuration.

Great, thanks Radu! I will look into the short-term solution on our side.

Can you please let me know the issue ID for this enhancement request?

Hi Julien, Now I am unsure exactly what -Xmx and -DbaseJVMArgLine=-Xmx each control: Does -DbaseJVMArgLine=-Xmx require that -Xmx also be specified? (Is it configuring the memory of a launched subprocess?) Is -DbaseJVMArgLine=-Xmx specific to PDF Chemistry, or does it apply to other transtypes too? ...

Hi Léontine,

What transformation type are you using?

Hi Andrei, I confirmed that this works - thank you! This new memory reporting feature is already providing value. :) There are many mentions of -Xmx in the Oxygen documentation: # document(s) found for -Xmx but no mention of setting it via -DbaseJVMArgLine= . I don't know if it's worth internally mo...
