#### 39.4.3 Editing a document-specific configuration file

For settings that are specific to your DITA source document and that apply to a group of output types, DITA2Go maintains one or more document-specific configuration files. By default, document-specific configuration files for all your DITA documents are located in directory %OMSYSHOME%\d2g\documents. However, you can choose to keep such files elsewhere; see §39.3.2 Deciding where to keep document-specific configuration files.

When you set up a new project, DITA2Go places in your project configuration file a reference to the appropriate document-specific configuration file:

    [Templates]
    Document = Path\to\mysourcedir\_config\mydocname_htm_document.ini

The DITA2Go project manager sets up the document-specific configuration file for you the first time you create a conversion project for a particular document. This file is named for the map file you specify when you create the project. Later conversion projects for the same document use the same source-specific configuration file.

The starting project configuration file for each project references the document-specific configuration file for the document you are converting. The document-specific configuration file typically does not reference any other configuration files. However, a document-specific configuration file can reference other document-specific files (via [Templates]Document) and macro libraries (via [Templates]Macros). But a document-specific configuration file cannot reference general configuration files. See §39.3 Including document-specific configuration files.
