Key references not showing up in PDF
Posted: Tue Nov 06, 2018 3:15 am
Hi. I'm new to OxygenXML and to Dita. I'm taking over a doc set from a previous writer. He made liberal use of key references to reference topics. This has caused problems in our PDF output for some reason. What I've seen so far:
I believe the PDF transformation is the stock one that comes with Oxygen.
My workaround thus far has been to replace these key references with normal cross references. These always come out properly in the PDF. But what are the pros and cons of using direct cross references vs indirect key references?
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
- The referenced topic simply disappears, leaving a blank space that our reviewers flag as missing text (example: "Users can monitor data from the .")
The referenced topic is listed, but with no hyperlinking (example: "Users can monitor data from the Monitoring page.")
The referenced topic is listed, with a hyperlinked page reference (example: "Users can monitor data from the Monitoring page on page 30.")
