Launching DITA-OT post-processing
Describes the steps that are launched from the default publish script.
The default configured script, C:\InfoShare\DataDITA\PublishingService\Tools\Publish.wsf (Windows Script Host) is responsible for launching the following steps:
- Loads the job ticket parameters into variables in memory.
- Copies the files to a workset directory for further processing. As such, the original files are not touched and can be used over and over again when developing.
- Resolved the DTD for each XML file.
This is done using the catalog that is configured on the server.
- Changes the extension of exported maps from *.xml to *.ditamap.
DITA-OT requires that the file extension of the map is *.ditamap.
- The Content Manager logical identifier links (GUIDs) in the XML files are changed to a file path.
- DITA-OT is launched for building the requested output.
The batch file DITA-OT-<transtype>.cmd is executed.
