16.2.4 Specifying roles for topics in ditamaps

To specify the kind of entry (if any) each topic type should have in its chapter map:

[DITAMapUsage]

; Frame para format that starts topic = Topic (default), Head, or None

Parafmt=Topic

You can assign one of the values Topic, Head, or None to each paragraph format that you map to a <title> element at the topic level in [DITAParaTags]; see §15.4.3 Mapping paragraph formats to DITA block elements. These values have the following effects:

`Topic`	(Default) Include a `<topicref>` element in the map for this topic
`Head`	Include a `<topichead>` element only, with a title but no link
`None`	Exclude the topic from the map

Because the default value is Topic, you need list only those paragraph formats that identify topics that should not be linked from the map, or that should be excluded from the map.
