DITA Quick Start

Gone through articles and presentations on the web and got a half-baked understanding of the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA)?

Refer to my DITA Quick Start presentation for the 2007 STC India Conference to learn to evaluate, plan and start implementing DITA.

In this presentation, you will learn about the following:

• Structured authoring and XML
• Key DITA concepts: topics, maps, specialization
• DITA architecture and content model
• Authoring in topics
• Organizing content using DITA maps
• Creating relationship tables
• Conditional text and reuse in DITA
• Metadata support in DITA
• DITA tools, standards and processes
• Publishing with the DITA Open Toolkit
