CSA ISO/IEC TR 19758:04 (R2019)

CSA Preface Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the Canadian Advisory Committee (CAC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T). This International Standard was reviewed by the CSA TCIT under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Information Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. (A committee membership list is available on request from the CSA Project Manager.) From time to time, ISO/IEC may publish addenda, corrigenda, etc. The CSA TCIT will review these documents for approval and publication. For a listing, refer to the CSA Information Products catalogue or CSA Info Update or contact a CSA Sales representative. This Standard has been formally approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada. Scope This Technical Report provides a DSSSL library that can specify styles for the documents described by SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language, ISO 8879) or XML (Extensible Markup Language, W3C REC-xml- 980210). The library makes it feasible to describe DSSSL specification for those documents, without any particular knowledge of DSSSL or particular composition rules. The library deals with some complex compositions described by a number of complicated DSSSL specification statements. They are typically required in fixed-pitch document styles. Some of them can be applied to proportional pitch styles and fixed/proportional mixtures as well. More sophisticated compositions will be dealt with in a future Technical Report to be submitted.
