15.2.4 Specifying DITA version

By default, Mif2Go produces output for DITA version 1.1. However, you can restrict output to features that conform to DITA version 1.0, and you can generate version 1.2 output by specifying 1.1 and using the mechanism provided for specializations and content models; see §32 Working with content models.

To specify DITA version 1.0 output:

[DITAOptions]

; DITAVer = DITA version point number, 1 (default, for 1.1)

;  or 0 (for 1.0)

DITAVer = 0

When DITAVer=1, output can include the following DITA 1.1 features:

elements <index-see>, <index-see-also>, and <index-sort-as>

index range attributes

elements <abstract>, <foreign>, <unknown>, and <data>

topic types glossentry and bookmap, and the elements they contain.

When DITAVer=0, these features are omitted from output.

We recommend sticking with DITA version 1.1. However, FrameMaker 7.2 and 8.0 do not support DITA version 1.1; if you expect to bring your DITA 1.1 output back into FrameMaker 7.2 or 8.0 with these features intact, you will need the Leximation DITA-FMx plug-in:

Note:  When [DITAOptions]FM8Import=Yes, Mif2Go changes the default value of DITAVer to 0; see §15.2.6 Ensuring FrameMaker 8 import compatibility.
