Checking the DITA-OT version

You can determine the version of the DITA Open Toolkit from a command prompt.

1. Open a command prompt or terminal session, and then change to the directory where the DITA Open Toolkit is installed.

2. Issue the following command:

   |Linux or Mac OS X | bin/dita -version | |Windows| bin\dita -version |

   Tip: If you add the absolute path for the DITA-OT install-dir/bin directory to the PATH environment variable, you can run the dita command from any location on the file system.
