#### 2.1.3 DITA processing

Several common DITA processing behaviors are driven by attributes, including setting the set of vocabulary and constraint modules on which a DITA document depends, navigation, linking, content reuse (via direct or indirect addressing), conditional processing, chunking, and printing. In addition, translation of DITA content is expedited through the use of the @dir, @translate, and @xml:lang attributes, and the <index-sort-as> element.
