Hi Scott,
As you seem to have a custom DITA OT installation inside your custom
framework, why don't you also use it as a default engine for publishing
in the Oxygen Preferences->DITA page?
Other than that, the DITA OT needs to have a plugin containing extra
catalogs (or as a hack you need to manually make changes to the
"catalog-dita.xml" inside the DITA OT). There is no possibility to
enforce an extra set of XML catalogs from the exterior when starting
the DITA OT. At some point I wished there was such a way:
https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/issues/1515
Also Jarno Elovirta experimented at some point with a way to install
plugins in the DITA OT without the need to change any files in the DITA
OT folder itself, this pull request was abandoned though:

I've got a custom framework that includes an OT installation that

that use this custom doctype is handled without problems, and using
transformation scenarios that are supported by the embedded OT also
works fine. But, I'd like to use an OT target that lives in the
default Oxygen OT installation. My Oxygen DITA settings still point to
the "built-in" OT, so when I set up a transformation scenario for the
Oxygen OT target, it starts to work, but fails when it can't find the
custom DTD.
When I add a pointer from [OXYGEN]/org.dita.base/catalog-dita.xml that
references my custom catalog, the build completes fine. BUT .. I don't
want to modify the default Oxygen installation files.
Some thoughts ..
- I don't think there's a param that I can add to the transformation
scenario to reference my custom catalog .. is there?
- I've tried adding my catalog in Settings > XML > XML Catalog .. but
that didn't seem to have any affect.
Is there any way to add a custom catalog without editing the default
Oxygen files?
Currently using Oxygen 25.1.
Thanks!
