Horizontal Dividing Lines

Horizontal dividing lines or decorated dividing elements between text passages are tagged by using the <milestone> element:

<milestone unit="section" rendition="#hr"/><lb/>

Only separators between text passages or at the end of a section are taken into account. Separation lines between the text and the footnote area/header are not taken into account.
