26.4.1 Treating format names as element names

To map format names to DocBook elements of the same name, where possible:

[DocBookOptions]
; UseFormatAsTag = No (default, if tag unmapped use default elem),
;  or Yes (if unmapped, use format name if valid in content
;  model).
UseFormatAsTag = Yes

When UseFormatAsTag=Yes, any format with a name that is the same as a DocBook element name in the current content model is mapped to that element.

Unmapped format names that do not correspond to such element names are mapped to the default element; see:

§26.4.2.2 Specifying a default element for unmapped paragraph formats

§26.4.3.2 Specifying a default element for unmapped character formats.
