HTML5 id205BE700XO1

The HTML5 output is generated in a flat folder hierarchy. This implies that the folder structure used by the content in the repository is not replicated in the HTML5 output. The entire content is published in HTML5 output format and saved in a single folder. The file names are also replaced with the UUIDs of the files in the generated output. The only file that doesn’t have a UUID-based filename is the index.html file.

You can create the HTML preset in two ways:

From the Web Editor: In the Repository panel, open the DITA map file in Map View, then in the Output tab, select the + icon to create an output preset, and then select HTML5 from the type drop-down in the Add preset dialog.

NOTE
You can choose the method to generate HTML5 using the DITA-OT or FMPS (if your system administrator has configured it).

In the Web editor the configurations have been organized under General and Advanced tabs:

General

The General tab contains the following configurations:

  • Output Path
  • DITA-OT Command Line Arguments
  • File Name
  • Apply Conditions Using (If the conditions are defined for a map)
  • Use Baseline (If a baseline is created for a map)
  • Post Generation Workflow

Advanced

The Advanced tab contains the following configurations:

  • Transformation Name
  • Retain temporary files
  • File Properties

For details, refer to HTML5 configuration.

From the map dashboard

To open output presets for PDF, click on a DITA map file from the Assets UI, then click on Output Presets, and then click on the HTML5 option. In the Map dashboard, click Edit on the top to update the various configurations, and then click Save.

HTML5 configuration

The following options are available for the HTML5 output:

HTML5 options
Description
Output Type
The type of output you want to generate. To generate HTML5 output, choose the HTML5 option.
Setting Name
Give a descriptive name for the HTML5 output settings you are creating. For example, you can specify Internal customers output or end-users output.
DITA-OT Command Line Arguments
Specify the additional arguments that you want DITA-OT to process while generating output. For details about the command-line arguments supported in DITA-OT, see DITA-OT documentation.
Generate Responsive Using
Select DITA-OT to generate the HTML5 output.
Apply conditions using
Select one of the following options:

* None applied: Select this option if you do not want to apply any condition on the published output.
* DITAVal file: Select DITAVal file(s) to generate personalized content. You can select multiple DITAVal files using the browse dialog or by typing file path. Use the cross icon near the file name to remove it. DITAVal files are evaluated in the order specified, so the conditions specified in the first file take precedence over the matching conditions specified in later files. You can maintain the file order by adding or deleting files. If the DITAVal file is moved to some other location or is deleted, it is not automatically deleted from the map dashboard. You need to update the location in case files are moved or deleted. You can hover over the file name to see the path in the AEM repository where the file is stored. You can only select DITAVal files and an error is displayed if you have selected any other file type. FrameMaker Publishing Server doesn’t support multiple DITAVAL files.
* Condition preset: Select a condition preset from the drop-down to apply a condition while publishing the output. The option is visible if you have added a condition present in the Condition Presets tab of the DITA map console. To know more about condition preset, see Use condition presets.

Note: FrameMaker Publishing Server doesn’t support multiple DITAVAL files.
Transformation Name
Specify the type of output you want to generate. This is required if you want to generate output using your own custom plug-in, which is integrated in the DITA-OT plug-in. For example, if you want to generate XHTML output, specify xhtml. For a list of transformations available in DITA-OT, see DITA-OT transformations (output formats) in OASIS DITA-OT User Guide.
File Name
Specify the file name with which you want to save the HTML5 output.

Note:If you do not provide a file name, then the DITA map’s title is used to generate the final HTML5 output file name. If the map does not have a title, then the DITA map’s file name is used to name is the final HTML5 output. The file name is sanitized using the rules configured in the system to handle any invalid character.
Run Post Generation Workflow
When you choose this option, a new Post Generation Workflow drop-down list is displayed containing all workflows configured in AEM. You must select a workflow that you want to execute after completion of the output generation workflow.

Note:For more information about creating a custom post-output generation workflow, see Customize post-output generation workflow in Install and configure Adobe Experience Manager Guides as a Cloud Service.
Destination Path
The path within your AEM repository where the HTML5 output is stored.
Retain temporary files
Select this option to retain the temporary files generated by DITA-OT. If you are experiencing errors while generating output through DITA-OT, select this option to retain the temporary files. You can then use those files to troubleshoot output generation errors.

After generating the output, select the Download temporary files download temporary files icon icon to download the ZIP folder containing the temporary files.

Note: If file properties are added during generation, the output temporary files also include a metadata.xml file containing those properties.
Flatten file hierarchy
Select the option to generate the HTML5 output in a flat folder hierarchy. The entire content is published in HTML5 output format in a flat file hierarchy and saved in a single folder.
If you deselect this option, the output is generated in a nested folder hierarchy, and the entire folder structure is replicated.
Use Baseline
If you have created a Baseline for the selected DITA map, select this option to specify the version that you want to publish.

See Work with Baseline for more detail.
File Properties
Select the properties that you want to process as metadata. These properties are set from the Properties page of the DITA map or bookmap file. The properties you select from the dropdown list appear under the File Properties field. Select the cross icon next to the property to remove it.

Note: You can also pass on the metadata to the output using DITA-OT publishing. For more details see, Pass on the metadata to the output using DITA-OT.
