To cover separate content such as concepts, tasks, reference, the DITA standard specifies different information types. Each information type defines structured elements that aid in authoring the relevant content. For example, the task type defines elements such as , , , and .
DITA doesnt have an actual variables element, but you can use keyref to accomplish the same thing. A variable is a symbol that represents something else. You might use the variable productname so that if youre product name switches, you dont have to update all instances of the product name in your documentation.
Structured content is content that is organized and separated into its individual component parts. For example, a blog posts headline, byline, publishing date, snippet, and keyword tags are all separate structured content fields within a CMS (content management system.)
Creating a DITA Topic in Oxygen XML Editor Select File New or click the New button on the toolbar. Step Result: The New Document Wizard is displayed: Go to Framework templates DITA topic and select the type of topic that you want to create. Select a file path where it will be saved. Click Create.
DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture) is a set of XML markup languages for authoring and publishing technical documentation. Designed to be flexible, modular, and re-usable, along the structured content model, it allows the creation and management of complex information sets, referred to as topics.
Content created using DITA is in XML format, making it machine-readable. DITA content is componentized, arranged in topics and maps, and most commonly stored in a component content management system (CCMS).
What is the Definition of Structured Content? Create working documents from templates in bulk. Assemble content into the correct order and hierarchy. Reuse content within and across documents. Apply formatting, layout, and pagination. Retrieve data from another source. Track every change throughout the content lifecycle.
Structured content gives you granular control over your information, so you can Create Once, Publish Everywhere (known as the COPE model), instead of re-creating similar content for different platforms. Search engines use structured content to deliver more meaningful descriptions in search results.
