Your references to: * common/vars/en.xml * <variable id="XXX"> seem to indicate that you are *not* using our own DITA processor: XMLmind DITA Converter. See http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/ My guess is that you are using the DITA Open Toolkit. We have stopped using this software a few years ago, so we cannot answer any of your questions about it. -- XMLmind DITA Converter Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/ditac-support
