Terminology plugin

Parent: DITA-OT Plugins

org.jung.terminology is a full-blown terminology management solution for DITA/Oxygen XML authoring environments. Technically speaking it’s a plugin for the Oxygen Publishing Engine and the DITA-OT. The plugin ships the specialized <termentry> topic type and a few others. The <termentry> represents a single terminology concept and contains all metadata and all linguistic information of the terminology concept in all languages.

You can watch the video DITA terminology management and checking from the DITA-OT Day 2016 to get a fundamental understanding of the plugin.
