1.7 How to work with DITA2Go

The methodology for converting documents with DITA2Go is iterative:

  1. Run your conversion project using the defaults for the output type you specify.
  2. Look at the results, and pick one thing you want different.
  3. Look up that feature in the DITA2Go User's Guide (this document), and find out what setting you need to change to get what you want.
  4. Make that setting in your project configuration file.
  5. Rerun the conversion, then go to Step 2.

What makes this feasible is the running time, which for a sample document set is about 3 seconds; and is seldom more than a few minutes for any size project. So you do not lose your train of thought waiting for completion.
