Question

XML files with DITA: Invalid method to insert videos MP4 (FILE/IMPORT FILE)

Problem Description: To create the XML files, we use the original template from DITA task 1.3. The method that we used in FrameMaker 2019 (“File>Import>File”) does not allow us to insert files in MP4 format, because it generates an “object” tag instead of “image”: The problem with the "object" tag is that it outputs a different line when "image" doesn't.

 

Does anyone know a solution for this?

    When you say "outputs a different line" are you talking about the position of the element on the page?

    Modifying the EDD would be a reasonable way to correct the position, if you are not using the object element anywhere else in your content.
