DITA Open Toolkit parameters You can adjust DITA Open Toolkit behavior via dita command arguments and options, DITA-OT parameter settings, and configuration properties. Arguments and options for the dita commandThe dita command takes mandatory arguments to process DITA content. Subcommands can be used to manage plug-ins, or print information about the current configuration. A series of options are available to modify the command behavior or specify additional configuration parameters.DITA-OT parametersCertain parameters apply to all DITA-OT transformations. Other parameters are common to the HTML-based transformations. Some parameters apply only to specific transformation types. These parameters can be passed as options to the dita command using the --parameter=value syntax or included in build scripts as Ant properties.Configuration propertiesDITA-OT uses .properties files and internal properties that store configuration settings for the toolkit and its plug-ins. Configuration properties are available to both Ant and Java processes, but unlike argument properties, they cannot be set at run time.Related informationParameters annotations for DITA-OT plugins
