Configuration

Reference list of DITA-OT configuration properties.

The lib/configuration.properties file is used to store configuration properties for DITA-OT and plug-ins. The configuration properties are available to both Ant and Java processes, but unlike argument properties, they cannot be set at run-time.

The lib/org.dita.dost.platform/plugin.properties file is used to store configuration properties set by the integration process. The file is regenerated from plug-in configuration each time the integration process is run and should not be edited manually.
