Open Document Format processing modules
The odt transformation creates a binary file using the OASIS Open Document Format.
The odt transformation begins with pre-processing. It then runs either the
dita.odt.package.topic or dita.odt.package.map target, depending on whether
the input to the transformation is a DITA topic or a DITA map. The following description focuses on the map
process, which is made up of the following targets:dita.map.odt- Converts the map into a merged XML file using the Java-based
topicmergemodule. Then an XSLT process converts the merged file into the content.xml file. dita.map.odt.stylesfile- Reads the input DITA map, and then uses XSLT to create a styles.xml file in the temporary directory.
dita.out.odt.manifest.file- Creates the manifest.xml file
Once these targets have run, the generated files are zipped up together with other required files to create the output ODT file.
