20.7.2 Assigning glossary properties

To convert a DITA glossary to a JavaHelp 2 glossary:

[JavaHelpOptions]
; UseGlossary = No (default) or Yes (affects HelpSet File rewrite)
UseGlossary = Yes

Assign property GlossTerm to each glossary-term paragraph format. For example:

[HtmlStyles]
; doc style (para or char) = keywords for functions and properties
;  GlossTerm is used for JavaHelp 2 only, to identify para formats
;  used for glossary terms (where they are defined in the next
;  following paragraph).
Gterm = GlossTerm

Because every glossary term is followed by a definition, you do not have to assign a property to the definition format.
