15.9.5 Specifying alternate titles for a DITA topic
To include an alternate title for a topic, you can use either of the following:
The text of an alternate title, whether provided via paragraph format or marker, appears as follows:
![[spacer]](1p.gif){kind=small}
<searchtitle> element in the <topicmeta> of the map’s <topicref> |
In addition, both appear as elements in the topic itself, in a <titlealts> block immediately following the <title> element. Mif2Go provides the <titlealts> wrapper for alternate titles.
To use a dedicated paragraph format for an alternate title, place a paragraph in that format after the main title paragraph, and map the format to the alternate-title element. For example:
; Frame para format (wildcards OK) = DITA element
See §15.4.3 Mapping paragraph formats to DITA block elements.
To use a marker for an alternate title, insert a DITANavTitle marker, a DITASearchTitle marker, or both, in the <title> paragraph. Make the content of the marker the text of the alternate title, which becomes the content of the navtitle attribute or <searchtitle> element.
