Dita Maps

Vitra AI DITA Maps Translation

What This Integration Does

• Vitra provides an AI-powered DITA map translation workflow designed specifically for structured documentation localization and XML-based content systems.
• Instead of extracting multiple XML topic files, sending them for translation, and rebuilding the documentation structure manually, teams can translate entire DITA maps in a single workflow.
• Vitra automatically detects and translates all linked XML topic files inside the DITA map, while preserving:
• DITA Map hierarchy
• XML tags and attributes
• Topic relationships and reference
• Structured documentation architecture
• Cross file linking and navigation
• This enables faster technical documentation localization, multilingual documentation publishing, and global product documentation deployment.

How It Works

Step 1: Select the file

Start by selecting the DITA map file or DITA ZIP package containing your documentation.

Vitra automatically scans the DITA map and detects all linked XML topic files ready for translation.

Step 2: Select the source language

Choose the source language of your documentation.

Step 3: Select the target language

Choose one or more target languages.

Vitra supports 75+ global languages, allowing you to translate entire DITA documentation systems into multiple languages simultaneously.

Step 4: Select Glossary

Choose your organization's translation glossary and terminology database

This ensures consistent technical terminology, product naming conventions, brand language, and approved documentation terms across all translated XML topics.

Step 5: Translate

• Upload the DITA map package and click Translate.
• Vitra AI automatically translates all linked XML topic files while preserving:
• DITA Map Structure
• XML tags and formatting
• Topic hierarchy and reference
• Documentation integrity
• Cross-linked content relationships

Your multilingual technical documentation is ready for review and validation.
