#### 43.3.1 Renaming individual output files

Do not try to rename DITA2Go-generated files outside of DITA2Go.

To substitute a different name for a particular output file, map the original name to the new name (without extension):

    [HtmlFiles]
    ; original html filename = desired html filename
    splitfilename = newname

We strongly advise all-lowercase file names, so that they work from a UNIX server, where references are case sensitive. Do not include spaces or non-alphanumeric characters in file names.

You cannot use the [HtmlFiles] section to rename files other than those produced by splitting; not even the file before the first split point, which retains the original DITA name. DITA2Go writes this file even if it is essentially empty.
