Re: Moving Images subfolders and need hrefs to update

Hi Sorin, Thanks for the confirmation! This helped me find the source of the problem. In the Project view, I had my display filter settings set to show only "*.dita,*.ditamap". Unfortunately removing files from display also seems to remove them from consideration of resource renaming detec...

Re: Moving Images subfolders and need hrefs to update

I've added all my *.ditamap files as Master Files. When I rename a *.dita file, or rename a directory containing *.dita files, I get the dialog asking if I want to update all hrefs to those resources - hooray! But when I rename a graphics/ directory containing image files to graphics2/, I get no suc...

Using a more recent PDF version for PDF production

Currently, PDF Chemistry creates PDF version 1.4 files (May 2001). PDF version 1.5 (April 2003) provides additional content compression features. PDF version 1.6 (January 2005) allows OpenType fonts to be directly embedded instead of converted to TrueType/Type 1. Is there a way to configure PDF Chem...

Re: What about Git support?

In researching this further, I found that remote branches aren't automatically pulled down; you must explicitly create a local branch and set it to track a remote branch: $ git checkout --track origin/ani-test Branch 'ani-test' set up to track remote branch 'ani-test' from 'origin'. Switched to a ne...

Re: Can I use 'html5' DITA-OT plugins with PDF Chemistry?

Hi Julien,

I found that the HTML5 extension points (dita.xsl.html5, dita.xsl.strings) are applied; it is specifically the dita.xsl.topicpull extension point that is not applied by PDF Chemistry. I will send a testcase so you can confirm if this is an expected behavior or not.

Thank you!

Re: Unwrapping element inserts extra spaces

It seems like the text-mode unwrap operation should be enhanced to be schema-aware so it knows which elements are space-preserved and which are not.
