PDF Crossbook References to topic
Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2025 9:35 am
Hi Folks,
We have scenarios that to provide the links to the topics in other ditamap. This works perfectly fine in WebHelp transformation where we have included both the ditamaps in wrapper ditamaps.
But, in case of PDF publishing, As PDFs generated in seperate transformation, we use the <xref scope="external" href="filename.pdf#topicid" /> and it takes first page of the target pdf.
Is there any xsl hack for this to make target topic link works smoothly?
Thansk & Regards,
Sudhe
