Adding an Edit Link in PDF Output to Launch Oxygen XML Web Author

You can embed Edit links in the DITA Map PDF - based on XSL-FO transformation scenario output that will automatically launch a particular document in Oxygen XML Web Author. A reviewer can then simply click the link and they will be redirected to the Oxygen XML Web Author editing page with that particular file open and editable.

To embed an Edit link in the DITA Map PDF output, follow these steps:

Edit a DITA Map PDF - based on XSL-FO transformation scenario and open the Parameters tab.
Set values for the following parameters:
- editlink.ditamap.edit.url - The URL of the DITA map used to publish your content. The easiest way to obtain the URL is to open the map in Web Author or Content Fusion and copy the URL from the browser's address bar.
- editlink.additional.query.parameters - Optional query parameters to be appended to each generated edit link. Each parameter must start with & (e.g. &tags-mode=no-tags).
Run the transformation scenario.

Result: In the PDF output, all topics will have an Edit link to the right side of the title and clicking the link will launch that particular document in Oxygen XML Web Author.
