Michelle Caisse commented on DERBY-1992: ---------------------------------------- Unfortunately, I've hit a dead end on this issue due to licensing problems. Upgrading to DITA-OT 1.4.1 would not provide indexes because (1) indexes are not available for XHTML docs and (2) the PDF index generation depends on software that, though it has a free personal license, that license is not consistent with use within Apache (or any other organization, for that matter.) (Andrew mentioned this problem in email to derby-dev on 16 Nov 07.) Laura raised the issue of indexing support on the DITA Help forum (http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4127959) and by my reading of the response, getting a solution with a reasonable license doesn't look promising. DITA 1.4.1 does come with an Apache license. There is no longer a separate download for an Apache licensed toolkit. I haven't yet succeeded in creating pdf with 1.4.1. If there is any reason to upgrade given that we will not get indexes, I can pursue this. > Upgrade to DITA Open Toolkit version 1.3 > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1992 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1992 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build tools > Affects Versions: 11.0.0.0 > Reporter: Laura Stewart > Assignee: Laura Stewart > Fix For: 11.0.0.0 > > > There are major improvements in the DITA Open Toolkit, including improvements > in > the display of index entries.
