#### 45.2.2 Preparing for conversion

Before you use the DCL command-line method to convert files, you must do the following:

1. Copy a starting configuration file for the output type you want (see Table 39-5) from %OMSYSHOME%\d2g\local\config to your output directory.
2. Edit the configuration file to specify settings. See §3.1 Working with DITA2Go configuration files for more information.
