Table of Contents

If you use Typefi to create PDF files in InDesign from JATS- or BITS-compliant XML, you’ll find several tags on the Insert Tag menu that give you greater control over display items during PDF composition.

Info

The specific effects of Typefi tags will have been arranged with Typefi to meet the needs of your layout.

There are 3 types of Typefi tags: Size tags, Turn tags, and Span tags.

All of these tags must appear at the end of the caption for the display item you’re applying them to.

Info

You can achieve the same effect using the content-type attribute, as described on the page for Object Type tags.

Size tags

Using these tags, you can specify that items should be displayed as small, medium, or large (e.g., Tbl_Small, Fig_Med, Box_Large).

Use the Insert Tag instructions to add a size at the end of a table title, figure caption, or box caption.

For example, if you want Figure 3 to display at the pre-determined Large size, the Word caption will look like this:

Figure 3 The Future Value of a Five-Year Ordinary Annuity<Fig_Large></Fig_Large>

The resulting XML looks like this:

Code Block
languagexml
<fig id="DOC0123-R-F3" position="float"
fig-type="figure"><?Figure Large?><label>Figure 3
</label><caption><title>The Future Value of a
Five-Year Ordinary Annuity</title></caption><graphic
xlink:href="DOC0123-R-F3"></graphic></fig>

How does this work? When you add a Typefi tag in Word (e.g., Tbl_Small), eXtyles XML Export translates it to a processing instruction in the XML (e.g., <?Table Small?>) that directs Typefi to set the item at a pre-determined size.

Turn tags

Use these tags to force display items (tables, figures, and boxes) to display in landscape orientation.

Examples of Turn tags:

Tbl_Turn1

Fig_Turn2

Box_Turn3

Span tags

These tags (e.g., Tbl_Small_Span) map to full-table or individual cell styles in InDesign, such as cell shading.
