The following questions relate primarily to your XSL server product which I am 
currently evaluating, but also to the underlying ditac functionality.

1 I need to generate a variant of the webhelp output in which the search tab is 
suppressed (because search will be provided by an external solr app). I see 
that this can be achieved by simply removing a div from the XHTML template on 
which the pages are based. Is this the best way to do it? is there any built in 
support for multiple page templates, or will I have to rename the file between 
jobs in some way?

2 I also need to be able to produce (for each variant webhelp "manual"), a 
single XML file containing indexable text extracted from all the input DITA 
files. I cannot see an obvious way to do this as part of the webhelp generation 
job - I believe it will be necessary to create a completely separate job in 
which ditac chunking is switched off. Is that true?

3 Finally, for any given manual, I will want to generate a number of different 
outputs: PDF, webhelp, the variant webhelp mentioned above, and possibly the 
additional XML index file. Is the dita -> ditac conversion repeated for each 
output, or is there a way to save and re-use it for each output?

Thanks,

Kevin Flynn
