►Deliver single-source publishing applications
 The creation of truly useful DITA to support single-source publishing applications is not always as straightforward a process as it may at first appear. There are a number of issues which need to be addressed along the way to ensure the successful conversion of content from a 'low granularity' medium, such as publications created in Adobe® FrameMaker®, to a 'high granularity' XML architecture such as that supported by DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture).
Low granularity content, such as unstructured FrameMaker, stores content as long "book-oriented" files, with each file containing a part, chapter or section. DITA, however, uses a high level of granularity by saving content as modular topics, typically in separate files. A section will consist of multiple topics, typically resulting in a high number of topics per publication. DITA also allows topic reuse, whereby a topic can be used in many publications. This allows the author to change the content in one place and have that change reflected in all publications that refer to the topic that has been changed, delivering single-source publishing applications.
