Larry,

I do not use DITA, but I do use structured documents and books. In structured books, one can pull in an attribute from an element as a running header or footer.

I am assuming that after you convert the map to a book, the attribute that holds the document title is in some element in the book. If so, you edit one of the running header/footer variables with the following:

<$attribute[theAttributeName:theElementName]>

If on the other hand, the title is the content of an element, use the following:

<$elemtextonly[theElementName]>

Hope this helps,
Van
