I've just happily converted a short set of Functional Specs to DITA,
then produced HTML help as portable output. What I'm now wondering is,
can I use DITA critdates to include "last updated" in a/the footer?
There is a general assertion or belief that distributing content on-line
helps make sure readers always have access to the latest version, but
given their tendency to print pages out I feel a visible time-stamp is
still something I'd like to provide.
There is a way[*] to do this when generating XSL-FO based formats (PDF,
RTF, etc), but not when generating HTML-based formats.
This means that if you really need this feature, then you'll have to
customize the XSLT stylesheets which generate HTML help.
[ps] thoughtful use of grep has turned up the page about Print options, but I'm
not sure that's what I need.
This is indeed not related to what you want to do. Print options are
used to parameterize XMLmind XML Editor's "File|Print".
