1. #29287 If you line DocBook and DITA up, I think DITA can point to four technical differences that are arguably features in its favor. Walsh, Norman. DITA for DocBook. Articles>Information Design>DocBook>DITA 2. #30753 A DocBook Basics and References DocBook is an easy-to-understand and widely used DTD. Dozens of organizations use DocBook for millions of pages of documentation, in various print and online formats, worldwide. Walsh, Norman. dpawson.co.uk (2004). Books>Information Design>XML>DocBook 3. #26191 This book is designed to be the clear, concise, normative reference to the DocBook DTD. This book is the official documentation for the DocBook DTD. Walsh, Norman and Leonard Muellner. Docbook.org (2003). Books>Documentation>XML>DocBook 4. #25444 This chapter is intended to provide a quick introduction to structured markup (SGML and XML). If you're already familiar with SGML or XML, you only need to skim this chapter. To work with DocBook, you need to understand a few basic concepts of structured editing in general, and DocBook, in particular. That's covered here. You also need some concrete experience with the way a DocBook document is structured. Walsh, Norman and Leonard Muellner. O'Reilly and Associates (1999). Articles>Documentation>Standards>XML 5. #26194 Structured documentation is semantic, rather than presentational. Components have identifiable structure. HTML and Word are somewhat structured. DocBook is strictly structured. Walsh, Norman. NWalsh.org (2001). Presentations>Documentation>Standards>DocBook 6. #18976 Hillesund (2002) argues that XML does not and cannot fulfil the often touted benefit that it allows authors and publishers to create documents that can be effectively presented in a variety of formats; that the 'doctrine of 'one input â*” many outputs' ... is basically wrong.' This Letter defends the position that XML is an effective technology, in fact the most effective technology in widespread use, for producing multiple output formats from a single input document.
