Question from anxious end-user, who seems to want the best of both

includes the familiar .pdf table of contents in the bookmarks pane?

Yes.




Observation from me: /.pdf outline = yes/ seems to be without effect

It's pdf-outline=yes. See http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/xsltParams.html#xsltParams__pdf-outline

I cannot reproduce this problem. The following PDF:

http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/manual-fop.pdf

has been generated as follows:

---
ditac -filter svg.ditaval -r media \
    -p title-color "rgb(57,73,134)" \
    -p pdf-outline yes \
    -p extended-toc both \
    -p number all -p use-note-icon yes \
    -p mark-important-steps no  \
    -p two-sided no \
    -p page-inner-margin 1in \
    -p page-outer-margin 1in \
    -p justified yes \
    -p hyphenate yes \

(Same options with XXE as XXE embeds XMLmind DITA Converter)



when the starting point is a .bookmap (I don’t altogether understand the
note /Supported by the 'XEP' , 'FOP' and 'AHF' XSL-FO processors. Not
relevant, and thus ignored by 'XFC'/

I’ve tried explaining to the end-user that a .bookmap is intended to
help produce a paper-style, printable .pdf

I personally always use bookmaps for all my DITA documents, no matter the output format.





– but end-user is already
familiar with the .pdfs I generate from FrameMaker, which do (can) give
both the ‘full-page’ ToC and the .pdf outline.

You'll have both with with pdf-outline=yes.





Is there some handy option I’ve missed?


You probably made a little mistake when invoking XMLmind DITA Converter.
