DITA conditions (profiles)
DITA is all about sharing and reuse. The functionality referred to as conditional text or profiling is supported to make topics and topic maps easier to reuse.
Profiling means that a given text fragment is given one or more conditions in the form of defined values. These values define a characteristic or an attribute that is added to the information. By selecting corresponding values in the publishing process, you can either include specific information in the resulting book or remove information that should not be included. You can define as many profiles as you want, and give them any value. Don't do that. Believe me, I have tried. Profiling must be used with care.
