Subject: Re: [niso-sts] Where to put <long-desc> From: "Bruce Rosenblum bruce@xxxxxxxxx" <niso-sts-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 2 Feb 2018 20:53:08 -0000 |
Hi Denise, long-desc is not used to describe the entire document. long-desc is specifically meant for figures, so it should be inside the <fig> element, and there should be one to describe each figure in the document. Please see the example at the bottom of http://www.niso-sts.org/TagLibrary/niso-sts-TL-1-0-html/element/long-desc.htm l long-desc can also be used to describe other objects such as tables or media objects, but it is more frequently used for figures.

That is, if the long description is a paragraph, where in the XML is that paragraph? And if it is not in the XML, where should it be? Are we expected to put it on a public server in a place that we hope will never change and point to it? This seems odd, and probably unworkable.B Perhaps I am misunderstanding something, but it looks to me like the "Best Practice" is to put the actual text of the long description outside the <long-desc> tag, but I don't see any guidance on where to put it.

B What I don't see is what it should link TO. And if, as I guess, it should link to a textual description, where should that description be?
