      requirements, make some function enhancements and fix bugs over release 1.1.2.1.</shortdesc><refbody><section id="section_jyg_jej_nc">
        <title>Important Change</title>
        <p>DITA-OT 1.2 offers new error handling and logging system. If you invoke your
          transformation by using java command line where new error handling and logging system is
          mandatory, you need to set the <varname>CLASSPATH</varname> Environment Variable for
            <codeph>dost.jar</codeph>. If you invoke your transformation by using an ant script, you
          need to do one more step after the setting above. That is adding a parameter in your
          command to invoke an ant script. For example, use <userinput>ant -f ant\sample_xhtml.xml
            -logger org.dita.dost.log.DITAOTBuildLogger</userinput> instead of <userinput>ant -f
            ant\sample_xhtml.xml</userinput> to start a transformation defined in ant script file
          ant\sample_xhtml.xml. </p>

        <title>New Functions</title>

            <p>DITA Open Toolkit 1.2 provides a new function to help users to download, install and
              use plug-ins and help developers create new plug-ins for DITA Open Toolkit.</p>
          </li><li>
            <b>Transformation to wordrtf</b>
            <p>DITA Open Toolkit 1.2 provides DITA to Word transforming function to transform DITA
              source files to output in <tm tmclass="special" tmowner="Microsoft Corporation" tmtype="reg" trademark="Microsoft">Microsoft</tm> Word RTF file.</p>
          </li><li>
            <b>HTML to DITA migration tool</b>
            <p>DITA Open Toolkit 1.2 provides a HTML to DITA migration tool, which migrates HTML
              files to DITA files. This migration tool originally comes from the developerWorks
              publication of Robert D. Anderson's how-to articles with the original h2d
              code.</p>
          </li><li>
            <b>Problem determination and log analysis</b>
            <p>In DITA Open Toolkit 1.2, a new logging method is supported to log messages both on
              the screen and into the log file. The messages on the screen present user with the
              status information, warning, error, and fatal error messages. The messages in the log
              file present user with more detailed information about the transformation process. By
              analyzing these messages, user can know what cause the problem and how to solve
              it.</p>
          </li><li>
