44.4 Clearing
out old files before converting
By the time you are ready to start a
production run, typically you have already completed one or more trial
conversions, perhaps leaving conversion files and old output files in
the project directory. You can have DITA2Go remove these files
before starting the next conversion, so they do not slow down the process,
and so obsolete and unneeded files do not accidentally end up in a deliverable.
