Reply To: Use DITA audience dialogue for non dita XML topics

[Derek Read]

The DITA authoring functionality will not function if you do not configure XMetaL Author Enterprise to treat your specialized DTD as DITA.

There is really only one step (click Tools > Select Specialized DITA DTD and choose your specialized DITA DTD), however, full instructions are in the Help under Working with DITA > DITA Specializations > Configure XMetaL.

If you have followed the instructions in Help then the Conditional Text feature should “just work”. If it does not please submit a copy of your files to XMetaL Support and they will try to figure out what in the DTD is causing the DITA authoring functionality to fail.
