#### 32.7.7.1 Mapping Mif2Go table types to configuration sections

To provide a configuration for a Mif2Go table type, in the DITA topictype.ini configuration file for the applicable topic type, map the table type name to a configuration section you provide. For example:

[TopicTables]

; Table name = name of configuration section that describes it.

property = PropertyTable

simple = SimpleTable

complex = ComplexTable

“Table name” is the name of a Mif2Go table type; see §15.6 Converting tables to DITA XML. Define here all table types supported by this topic type (other than those defined in the topic type from which this type was derived).

Because dtd2ini does not generate these sections, you must either include them in dtd2ini.ini as [AddedSections], or add them to the generated content-model configuration file after dtd2ini produces it.

You can define variants for all table types that are supported by the topic type to which the DITA topictype.ini configuration file applies. Multiple named Mif2Go table types can be mapped to variants of the same DITA table type.
