{{tag>dita bookmap publishing topic concept}} ======= DITA: What is a bookmap ======= A bookmap is a specialization of a DITA map and is meant to be used when you intend to publish your documents in a book format. It contains structure and metadata, but no content. It is especially designed to create output in book-style formation and therefore includes the following major structures: * title * bookmeta (owners, authors, publishing data,...) * front matter (acknowledgements, definitions, abbrevations,...) * chapters and parts * appendix topics * back matter (index, notices, lists,...) * relationship tables {{:dita:ditamap.png|}}
