4. A typical Set of Presentation Styles

4.0 Today's Status for Presentation Style




Description Languages for logical structures and style specifications have been internationally approved and actually implemented.

Is the status enough for everybody to describe presentation styles for his own documents?

No.


As shown in 1.2, there is no enough references on presentation styles.

We should try to draft some reference documents on presentation styles considering the cultural background of our countries and our document environments.

The style specifications are too complicated to be described by everybody. (The example of 3.4 is an extremely simple one.)

One solution could be a library of style specifications.


I will show a trial carried out in Japan, which is JIS/TR X 0010: DSSSL library for complex compositions. Its English version has been submitted to JTC1 as DTR (Draft Technical Report)
