A DITA domain defines a set of elements associated with a particular subject area or authoring requirement regardless of topic type.
The elements in a domain are defined in a domain module which can be integrated with a topic type to make the domain elements available within the topic type structure. Currently the following domains are provided:
Domain | Description | Short name | Module name |
---|---|---|---|
Typographic | For highlighting when the appropriate semantic element doesn't exist yet | hi-d | highlightDomain.mod (DTD) |
Programming | For describing programming and programming languages | pr-d | programmingDomain.mod (DTD) |
Software | For describing software | sw-d | softwareDomain.mod (DTD) |
User interfaces | For describing user interfaces | ui-d | uiDomain.mod (DTD) |
Utilities | For providing imagemaps and other useful structures | ut-d | utilitiesDomain.mod (DTD) |
Indexing | For extended indexing functions such as see and see-also | indexing-d | indexingDomain.mod (DTD) |
