Use a BookMap, except for Eclipse help, to produce the outputs. You can produce more than one output type simultaneously from a BookMap.
Avaya supports the following output formats from our DITA content in Tridion Docs:
-
Avaya DocPortal: HTML-based output generated to publish the content on Avaya Documentation Center Production.
Important:
Except for some legacy products, use this output format to publish documents on Avaya Documentation Center.
zoomindocs.Avaya-staging: HTML-based output generated to publish the content on Avaya Documentation Center Stage.
Avaya book: The standard PDF book layout.
Avaya Jobaid (PDF): Job aids must be short, without all the surround you see in a typical book output, like a cover page, table of contents, and index. To produce a job-aid output, do not include a table of contents or index and legal page.
Quick reference PDF outputs:
Avaya Quickref 3–Column: The preferred quick reference format. The format is flexible because we can create more than a single double-sided page. Space is used efficiently because the content begins right after the title in the first column.
Avaya Quickref: An older 2–column layout used for legacy double-sided, folded, single page outputs. The right column on the second side is designed as the cover.
Validator PDF: This output identifies specific tagging instances that do not adhere to Avaya standards and highlights them in the output so that they can be corrected. For information on the tagging this output highlights, see Validator PDF output formatting
.
Localization Use PDF: This output is for the Localization team’s use if they want to produce a PDF with different settings, such as producing a version compare draft.
Avaya HTML: HTML-based frameset output for online help that is integrated with the product.
Avaya HTML5: A frameless HTML output optimized for viewing on small devices:
This output is supported on browsers, such as Firefox and Chrome. However, the output is not supported on Internet Explorer.
The output contains structural breadcrumbs at the top of each topic that shows the path to the topic in the publication structure. If a topic appears more than once in a publication, you must apply a copy-to attribute to identify a unique output filename for each duplicate instance of the topic. if you do not do this, the breadcrumbs display multiple paths for each topic.
Avaya CHM: Microsoft compiled help (.chm): The .chm format is an old format that we avoid using whenever possible. We support .chm only for the legacy products. New projects must not use .chm help.
Avaya Eclipse: This output has specific requirements for deployment and must not be used without consulting Information Architect.
Avaya DOCX: An MS Word (.docx) output. The Word document is used to send the content for technical reviews.
