    Additional Information
    This setting only applies to CMS implementations with the Oxygen Desktop Plugin configured.

    See Creating and Modifying DITA Topics for details about DITA authoring tools that can integrate with the CMS.

    If your organization uses the Oxygen Desktop Plugin, see CMS 10.6 Opening Oxygen via Web Launcher for details about the Web Launcher feature.

Next Steps: If not already installed, then install your preferred DITA Open Toolkit (DITA-OT) version for the CMS. The DITA publishing pipeline requires the DITA-OT installation to run DITA publish and preview transformation processes.
