- some function enhancements and fix bugs over release 1.0.2.</shortdesc><refbody><section id="section_rnc_tej_nc">
- <ol><li>
- <b>Adaptation to the new OASIS DITA standard</b>
- <p>Release 1.1 implements the new OASIS DITA 1.0 standard for DITA DTDs and Schemas.</p>
- <p>DTDs of the previous release locate in the directory <b>dtd/dita132</b> and schemas
- of the previous release locate in the directory <b>schema/dita132</b>. </p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Transformation to troff</b>
- <p>Release 1.1 supports new troff output. Troff output looks like Linux man page
- output.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>XML catalog support</b>
- <p>An XML catalog, which can consist of several catalog entry files, is a logical
- structure that describes mapping information between public IDs and URLs of DTD files.
- A catalog entry file is an XML file that includes a group of catalog entries. If you
- want to know more about XML catalog, please refer<xref href="../xmlcatalog.xml">XML
- Catalog</xref>.</p>
- <p>A catalog entry can be used to locate a unified resource identifier (URI) reference
- for a certain resource such as a DTD file. An external entity's public identifier
- is used for mapping to the URI reference. The URI of any system identifier can be
- ignored.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Topicref referring to a nested topic</b>
- <p>The href attribute of the topicref is extended to quote a nested topic in a dita
- file.</p>
- <p>For example, in previous releases, href attribute is set like: href =
- "xxx.dita"; in release 1.1, href attribute can be set like: href =
- "xxx.dita#abc.dita".</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Globalization support</b>
- <p>Release 1.1 supports over 20 popular languages within the content of dita files. And
- it also provides translation function for DITA keywords to over 20 languages.
- Currently this globalization support fully applies to Eclipse Help and XHTML
- transformations, and partially applies to other transformations.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Accessibility support</b>
- <p>Accessibility support is now partially applies to PDF and XHTML transformations.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Eclipse Content Provider Support</b>
- <p>Please refer to <xref href="../eclipseconprov.xml">Eclipse Content Provider</xref> for
- detail information.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Index information in output</b>
- <p>The output of HTML Help and Java Help transformations contain index information
- now.</p>
- </li><li>
- <b>Mapref function</b>
- <p>Mapref refers to a special usage of the <tt><topicref></tt> element as a
- reference to another ditamap file. This allows you to manage the overall ditamap file
- more easily. A large ditamap file can thus be broken down into several ditamap files,
- making it easier for the user to manage the overall logical structure. On the other
- hand, this mechanism also increases the reusability of those ditamap files. If you
- want to know more about mapref, please refer <xref href="../mapref.xml">Mapref</xref>.</p>

- <b>TOC generation for Eclipse Help transformation</b>
