Custom DITA-OT PDF plugin transform fails with AH Formatter v7
Posted: Tue Aug 18, 2020 4:52 pm
Hi there
I recently used a temporary license of AH Formatter v6 to test PDF output from Oxygen on my Mac, using our custom DITA-OT plugins, which was successful.
However, I have just installed a full license of AH Formatter v7 and output is failing using the same DITA-OT custom plugins. Here is an example of the error:
axf.cmd (Specifies the path to the Antenna House Formatter executable – which has been set in the Oxygen preferences)
axf.opt (Specifies the user configuration file for Antenna House Formatter – there is only a font config file in my AH Formatter folder, no user config)
Both are currently empty (as they were when I used v6).
Could anyone suggest what I have done wrong here, please.
Thanks
Matt
