37.9.5 Using HTML Macro PI markers to invoke macros

You can specify a macro to be invoked via the HTML Macro PI marker. Insert a PI marker of type HTML Macro where you want a macro to be invoked, and supply <$Macroname> or <$.\macrofile.htm> as the marker text.

For compatibility with existing HTML macro usage, you can also specify just the macro name in a HTML Macro PI marker, without the angle brackets and dollar sign; DITA2Go processes the marker text as though it were a DITA2Go macro.
