 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      dtinfoStyle.dtd - dtinfo style sheet document type definition

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      dtinfoStyle.dtd describes the SGML features available for specifying
      how a document should be rendered. Style sheets associate the elements
      in a given document hierarchy with on-line or print formatting
      characteristics, and are part of the DtInfo Toolkit.

      With dtinfo, you use a single style sheet to specify both print and
      online rendering of the elements in your DTD.  The print and online
      feature sets match in function, description, and specification, with
      just four exceptions for print-specific features

    Basic Style Sheet Format    [Toc]    [Back]
      The basic style sheet format first defines autonumbers. Then, for each
      element (Path) the style sheet defines its feature set. For
      information see, "Understanding Dtinfo Style Sheets" and "Creating a
      Style Sheet" in CDE: Information Manager Author's and Programmer's
      Guide.

      You can also find an ASCII file of the dtinfoStyle.dtd in
      /usr/dt/infolib/%L/SGML/dtinfoStyle.dtd.

    AutoNumber    [Toc]    [Back]
      To use system-generated number tokens in element formatting, first
      create an AutoNumber specification for each token stream. (Note that
      these tokens can only be used with the Prefix, Suffix, Header and
      Footer features.)

      A simple example is:

      <AutoNumber

              id=chapnum

              reset="Book Part"

              counter=chapter>

      A more complex example is:

      <AutoNumber

              id=fignum

              type=UCroman

              initial="I"

              delta=l

              counter="FIG TABLE"

              reset=chap>

      <path>NUMITEM</>

              <margin top=4pt bottom=4pt>

              <prefix><auto id=NumList></prefix>

      where:

      type      The kind of counter values:Arabic, UCalpha, LCalpha,
                UCroman, LCroman.  The default value is Arabic.

      id        The unique name of this token. You can refer to this name,
                for example, in a Prefix. Required.

      initial   The initial value for this token, which must be consistent
                with the Type.  The default is 1.

      delta     The value by which the system increments or decrements the
                token.  The default is to increment by 1.

      counter   The element(s) that cause this token to use the Delta to
                change values. Required.

      reset     The element(s) that cause this token to reset to its initial
                value.  Required.
