24.2.1 Creating a DITA XML project
Easier: use the DITA2Go Project
Manager to start a new project; see §2.1 Creating
a DITA2Go conversion project.
To create a DITA XML project without using the DITA2Go
Project Manager:
- Create a directory for DITA
output, separate from the directory where your DITA input document is
located.
- Copy configuration file d2dita.ini from your DITA2Go
config directory (see §1.3.1 Set
up a framework for Omni Systems applications), or from an existing
DITA2Go project, to your newly created output directory:
DITA2Go copies a new project configuration
file, _d2dita.ini, to your project
directory. This file contains a series of empty configuration sections.
It is up to you to fill these sections with the rest of the settings
required to convert your document. Use a text editor to edit
_d2dita.ini; see §3.1 Working
with DITA2Go configuration files.
