6.3 Mapping
outputclass attribute values to formats
For text elements, table elements, and
cross references, you can map the outputclass
attribute of the element to an output format. However, mapping outputclass
attributes does not apply to all elements. Among those excluded are typographic
elements, such as <b> and
<i>. Those
are treated as properties, rather than as formats. Others excluded are
<ftn>,
<image>,
<alt>,
and <index*>.
All undergo special processing of one sort or another. For <ftn>,
DITA2Go automatically uses the value of the outputclass
attribute as the output format name.
