42.2.2 Overriding settings with configuration PI markers

To change a configuration setting mid-document with a configuration PI marker, you can use one of the following PI marker types: 

Config

applies either to HTML or to RTF, wherever the setting is applicable

HTMConfig

applies only to HTML output; ignored for RTF output

RTFConfig

applies only to RTF output; ignored for HTML output.

To change the value of a configuration setting partway through your document, insert a configuration PI marker (Config, HTMConfig, or RTFConfig) at the place where you want the value to change, and supply a configuration-variable assignment as content for the marker, according to the syntax and usage described in §42.2.4 Assigning values to configuration variables.
