Forms and Encoding of Appendices
All sections of the book that follow after the end of the text (appendices, registers, other additions) are enclosed with the <back>
element, which is found after the <body>
element in <text>
. Rough structuring within the <back>
element is carried out using <div>
elements whose @type
attributes specify the text parts more detailed.
The following values of @type
within the <back>
area are possible:
@type Value |
Meaning |
---|---|
postface

afterword, closing words, epilogue |
contents

table of contents |
imprint

corrigenda
|
errata |

|

The opening <back>
tag directly follows the closing </body>
tag, so it is still before every new page break. The endpaper and the back cover are always part of the <back>
area.
