The DITA Open Toolkit

The DITA Open Toolkit, or DITA-OT for short, is a set of Java-based, open source tools that provide a "reference implementation" for processing DITA maps and topical content. You can download the OT and install it for free on your computer, to get started with topic-based writing and publishing.

The best place to request enhancements to the DITA Open Toolkit is by opening a Request For Enhancement (RFE) in the RFE tracker at the DITA-OT Project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dita-ot/
