About this title

Synopsis

A user guide for the popular OASIS DITA standard. If you have been using DITA, or are just joining the DITA community, this book provides you with the information you need to accomplish your goals. The user guide not only presents the basic methodology of DITA and its benefits for creating your information set, but explains step-by-step how to author DITA XML topics, create maps for your deliverables, and work through the production processing tasks. The book includes a thorough explanation of the DITA model and the major elements used to create your topics using the task, concept, and reference information types. Procedures and examples in this book use XML code. The DITA User Guide uses a task-based approach (the user guide is written with DITA) to help you create topic-based output. Here are some of the questions we help you answer: How do I create DITA topics? How do I assemble DITA topics into DITA maps for output? How do I do conditional processing with DITA? How do I create my own specializations? How do I use the DITA Open Toolkit?
