Please remove the dita.jar copy found in your specialization and you'll see that it still works just fine. > My question - do you have a set of instructions/details on how specialised > DITA DTS and domains should be implemented with XMLMind - I assume the way we > have done it is not the right way! > [1] If you want to override the stock DITA configuration with a custom one making use of your specialized DTD, you'll find instructions here: XMLmind XML Editor - Configuration and Deployment 5. Customizing an existing configuration http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/customizing.html These instructions are meant to be followed by the local XML guru or by an external consultant specializing in XML, DITA, etc. A normal end-user of XXE cannot do this. [2] Having done [1], you may want to customize the DITA XSLT2 stylesheets in order to make it better cope with your DITA specialization. Note that step [2] is optional because, thanks to the DITA architecture, the stock DITA XSLT2 stylesheets should be able to process documents conforming to your specialization. You'll find instructions here: XMLmind DITA Converter Manual Customizing the output of XMLmind DITA Converter Using ditac to convert documents conforming to a DITA specialization http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/specialize.html#specialize Such XSLT2 stylesheets are found in XXE_install_dir/addon/config/dita/xsl/. As of version 4.4, XXE no longer uses the DITA Open Toolkit to convert DITA documents to other formats. Instead, XXE uses XMLmind DITA Converter (http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/)
