When I check out a map from Tridion Docs and attempt to produce any output from the DITA OT in Oxygen 20.1, it throws the following error.

Transformation failed. C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 20\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT2.x\plugins\org.dita.base\build_preprocess.xml:55: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jacob-1.18-x64 in java.library.path Removing the authoring bridge eliminates the problem. I am using 20180515.AuthoringBridge.13.0.4115.1.

A similar issue occurs in version 17.1. I posted an issue in support, and got the following response: "I spoke to engineering and PS and confirmed that Oxygen DITA-OT does not support our DTD's and it does not sync them to validate during the publish process."

I don't know that I follow this line of reasoning. I can validate against the DTDs in Oxygen, and the links "resolve" based on the GUIDs because of the authoringbridge. Catalogs to the DTDs can be configured. XMetal doesn't have this problem. Oxygen is the single most popular XML editor on the market right now. SDL's authoring bridge should work with Oxygen's publishing tools.
