Plans for the DITA Open Toolkit PDF2 Plug-in

We are in the process of reviewing the bugs, patches and feature requests listed on SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=132728) in order to integrate them into this document. We will prioritize the list below in a later version of this document. We welcome all feedback including suggestions for new features, existing bugs, and comments about prioritization of the items below.

One of our primary goals is to incorporate the plug-in into the core Toolkit functionality and to make the plug-in architecture more consistent with the rest of the Toolkit.

Items under development

    • Expand override size functionality
    • Provide documentation of the font post-processing functionality
New items for consideration

  • Incorporate support for Antenna House
    • Change RenderX specific code to generic XSL-FO code
    • Incorporate Antenna House processing option into build.xml

  • Chunking issues
  • Improve customization process
    • Reference customized index files from build.xml
    • Allow customization of a base class which doesn’t override a class specialized from that base class
    • Improve customization process for small changes
    • Remove hardcoded links to out of the box style sheets
    • Improve attribute set reflection calls
  • Improve built-in formatting
    • Add labels for prerequisites and post-requisites
