DITA-OT transformations
The DITA Open Toolkit (DITA-OT) ships with several core transformations. Each core transformation represents an implementation of all processing that is defined by OASIS in the DITA specification.
- DITA to Docbook The docbook transformation converts DITA maps and topics into a Docbook output file. Complex DITA markup might not be supported, but the transformation supports most common DITA structures.
- DITA to Eclipse Content
The eclipsecontent transformation generates normalized DITA files and Eclipse control files. It originally was designed for an Eclipse plug-in that dynamically rendered DITA content, but the output from the transformation can be used by other applications that work with DITA. - DITA to Eclipse help
The eclipsehelp transformation generates XHTML output, CSS files, and the control files that are needed for Eclipse help. - DITA to HTML5
The html5 transformation generates HTML5 output and a table of contents (TOC) file. - DITA to HTML Help (CHM)
The htmlhelp transformation generates HTML output, CSS files, and the control files that are needed to produce a Microsoft HTML Help file. - DITA to Open Document Type
The odt transformation produces output files that use the Open Document format, which is used by tools such as Open Office. - DITA to PDF (PDF2)
The pdf (or pdf2) transformation generates PDF output. - DITA to Rich Text Format
The wordrtf transformation produces an RTF file for use by Microsoft Word. - DITA to TocJS
The tocjs transformation generates HTML5 output, a frameset, and a JavaScript-based table of contents with expandable and collapsible entries. The transformation was originally created by Shawn McKenzie as a plug-in and was added to the default distribution in DITA OT, release 1.5.4. - DITA to Troff
The troff transformation produces output for use with the Troff viewer on Unix-style platforms, particularly for programs such as the Man page viewer. - DITA to XHTML
The xhtml transformation generates XHTML output and a table of contents (TOC) file. This was the first transformation created for the DITA Open Toolkit, and it is the basis for all the HTML-based transformations.
