Subject: Re: [jats-list] Re: [xsl] column break for jats book-tagset From: "Bruce Rosenblum bruce@xxxxxxxxx" <jats-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2015 14:51:10 -0000 |
JATS was designed to markup the structure of documents; it was not designed to markup the formatting of documents (e.g. column breaks, page breaks). In that regard, the underlying philosophy of JATS is different than TEI; TEI was specifically designed to enable markup of formatting information like this.
If the encoding of this formatting information is required in JATS files, I recommend using XML processing instructions because such formatting is usually specific to a given rendering environment.

Hi Dulip,
Did you intend to send your message to jats-list? Cross-posting the answer there.
I think you are right, there is no cb equivalent in JATS. break is not a good candidate since the context where it may occur is too constrained and its use is discouraged. Apart from that, there is no attribute permitted that would help you discern line breaks from column breaks.
The best compromise seems to be the target element, http://jats.nlm.nih.gov/archiving/tag-library/1.1d3/element/target.html
It features a specific-use attribute that you could fill with a value of your choice, for ex. 'column-break'. While your FO conversion will transform it to something meaningful for layout purposes, it will be completely transparent for other kinds of processing.
