The eXtyles JATS Style Guide is designed to help you understand the purpose, flexibility, and limitations of each paragraph style available in eXtyles JATS.

Each paragraph style is accompanied by a description of its purpose and place in the eXtyles workflow.

Most descriptions also include a link to the corresponding JATS XML element in the JATS Tag Library.

If you have any questions about how a style should be used or what style should be applied to your content, feel free to contact the eXtyles Support Team.

eXtyles JATS Paragraph Styling Palette

Instead of manually applying a paragraph style to each paragraph via Word’s menus or style list, you can use the eXtyles Style Paragraphs function to apply a set of styles from your template’s paragraph styles to the document.

eXtyles JATS has a standard styling palette that maps your organization’s paragraph styles.

The default tabs of the eXtyles JATS standard styling palette are:

Front: covering front matter paragraphs
Trans: covering multilingual material
Body: covering paragraphs in the body of the document
List: covering list items
Object: covering boxes, tables, and figures
Back: covering back matter paragraphs
