Reply To: Issues with cross-file reference check and spelling in 7.0

[jlm05]

So the information I've been able to get so far – the DTD file issue and the bizarre error issue seem to be separated and experienced by different people.

For the error issue, the errors being displayed are null-pointer type errors. The writer will try reinstalling to see if that helps.

Our general structure is to have the main bookmap and online map at the top level of a directory, with map, src, images subdirectories.

bookmap.ditamap
online.ditamap
/images
/maps
/src

The writers seeing the extra DTD files generated from the spell check are seeing it whether they run the spell check across a bookmap or a collection or unit map.

The procedure is pretty straightforward:

1. In the map pane, open book-level map.

2. Choose Tools > Spell Check in Files

3. The Apply to field defaults to the booklevel map.  Leave selected.  Leave Include subfolders selected.

4. Click Spell Check button

As spell check runs on each file, the .$$$.dtd file is generated in the src directory for each file that has spelling errors.
