DITA Open Toolkit 4.1 Help

Building output using Ant

You can build output by using an Ant build script to provide the DITA-OT parameters.

  1. Open a command prompt or terminal session.

  2. Issue the following command:

    |**Linux or macOSĀ **|`bin/ant` -f `*build-script* *target*`|

    |Windows|bin\ant-f *build-script* *target*|

    where:

    • build-script is name of the Ant build script.

    • target is an optional switch that specifies the name of the Ant target that you want to run.

      If you do not specify a target, the value of the @default attribute for the Ant project is used.
