Figure Caption, Figure Caption Continued, Figure Accessibility Caption, Figure Credit

As for tables, the Figure Caption style is used for the figure number and the first paragraph of the figure caption. If the caption extends to a second or subsequent paragraph, the Figure Caption Continued style should be used.

The Figure Accessibility Caption style is used for a paragraph that describes the content of the figure for visually impaired users or others who are unable to view the image. Because this paragraph is designed to be read by screenreaders, it must contain plain text only, with no face markup or other non-text content.

The Figure Credit style is used for a paragraph that contains information about the source of the image and/or details of any permissions obtained.

The actual graphic itself does not form part of the XML. Instead, the XML includes a pointer to the image file, represented by the @xlink attribute of the graphic element. By default, the filename in this pointer is constructed automatically from the manuscript ID entered during activation of the Word file and an incremental counter. In the example below, this gives @xlink:href="123-f1" for the first image in a document with ID 123.

Example

<fig id="f1" position="float" fig-type="figure">
	<label>Figure 1</label>
	<caption>
		<p>Locations of the FIFA World Cup final</p>
		<p>The locations of all finals since 1930 are shown.</p>
	</caption>
