Use Product information (prodinfo, vrmlist, vrm) in DITA con
Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2015 1:16 pm
Hi,
I want to use the version number of the document which I have defined in my ditamap in my webhelp output so that the reader can see for which product versions the document relates to.
I have already successfully used the version number in the PDF output and can also extract it during the ANT build and can add it as a header to the webhelp and CHM output.
But ideally I want to have an "about" page or information in the "introduction" which says something like "This manual is for Product version 1.2.3".
My Ditamap code is:
I've looked at conref but this just adds in another VRM. Can you help me to add the VRM information to a dita topic body?
Thanks
Rich
