You say you are exporting "the exact same file". If you can specify the
URL of that file in your export procedure then you should be able to
identify which (if any) of the topic's item identifiers refers to a
topic in that same topicmap document, the document which you are
exporting into. You can use the fragment identifier from the end of the
URL as the value for the topic/@id.
