Creating a Map

To create a DITA map, subject scheme map, bookmap, or other types of DITA maps, follow these steps:

  1. Use the New Document wizard to start creating your map.
    Tip:
    If you want the map to be a submap, you can create it the same way by right-clicking the place in the current map where you want to add it (in the DITA Maps Manager) and selecting New from the Append Child, Insert Before, or Insert After submenu.
  2. Select one of the DITA Map templates from the Framework templates folder.
  3. Click the Create button.
  4. Select whether you want to open the map in the DITA Maps Manager or the Editor.
  5. Save the map using the Save button on the toolbar of the DITA Maps Manager view.
