Brochure template?

Hello,
I am curious how one would go about creating a multi-column brochure in DITA with Oxygen. I am thinking of a typical tri-fold, landscape PDF brochure, but does not necessarily have to be that specific layout (could be also be multi-column portrait). Are there sample templates available for such a document?
Thanks!
Dan

Hello Dan,

You can use the DITA Map PDF - based on HTML5 & CSS transformation, create a custom CSS style-sheet and create a custom @page definition like the following one:

Code: Select all

@page {  
  column-count:3;
  column-gap:0.5in;
  size: landscape;
}
You can find more details in our user-guide: Regards,
Julien
