FO output in DITA Maps Manager transform

[mshellenberger]

When I am using the normal XSLT transform in oXygen I just suppress the pdf output and I get the .fo xml file.

How do I do the same thing in the DITA Maps Manager transform?

Thanks.

Hello Mark,

If you are using a standard "PDF - DITA OT" transformation you should find the FO file in the same directory as the output PDF file.

If you are using a "PDF2 - Idiom FO Plugin" transformation you have to open the OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\demo\fo\build.xml file in Oxygen and comment the line 233

Code: Select all

<fileset dir="${dita.map.output.dir}" includes="topic.fo"/>

which removes the FO file after the transformation. After that, you should find the topic.fo file in the same directory as the PDF file.

Radu

Thanks! I automatically open the PDF on conversion so I didn't think to look there.
