  <title>Implementation-dependent features</title>

  <shortdesc>For certain features, the DITA specification allows conforming processors to choose between different
    implementation alternatives. In these cases, there may be differences in behavior when DITA content is handled by
    different processors. DITA-OT supports implementation-specific features by applying one or more of the permissible
    processing approaches.</shortdesc>

      <title>Chunking</title>
      <p>DITA content can be divided or merged into new output documents in different ways, depending on the value of
        the <xmlatt>chunk</xmlatt> attribute.</p>
      <p>DITA-OT supports the following chunking methods:</p>
      <ul>
        <li>select-topic</li>
        <li>select-document</li>
        <li>select-branch</li>
        <li>by-topic</li>
        <li>by-document</li>
        <li>to-content</li>
        <li>to-navigation.</li>
      </ul>
      <p>When no chunk attribute values are given, no chunking is performed.</p>
      <note>For HTML-based transformation types, this is effectively equivalent to select-document and by-document
        defaults.</note>
      <p>Error recovery:</p>
      <ul>
        <li>When two tokens from the same category are used, no error or warning is thrown.<draft-comment>This violates
            DITA 1.2 spec.</draft-comment></li>
        <li>When an unrecognized chunking method is used, no error or warning is thrown.</li>

          attribute, no error or warning is thrown</li>
        <li>When multiple prop elements define a duplicate attribute and value combination, attribute default, or
