Element information
Namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format
Schema document: fo.xsd
Type: Anonymous
Properties: Global, Qualified
Content
- Choice [1..1]
- fo:block [1..*]Formats paragraphs, titles, headlines, figure and table captions, etc. The start edge (and end edge) of the block is displaced by the least amount necessary to insure that (a) the start edge (end edge) of the block does not intersect any of the start intrusions (end intrusions) that overlap that block and (b) the amount by which it is displaced is at least as much as the displacement of the parent area, provided the parent is a block-area which is not a reference-area. An intrusion is said to overlap a block if the there is a line parallel to the inline progression direction that intersects the allocation rectangles of both the block and the intrusion.
- fo:block-container [1..*]Generates a block-level reference-area.
- fo:table-and-caption [1..*]Formats a table together with its caption.
- fo:table [1..*]A table.
- fo:list-block [1..*]A list.
- fo:multi-switch [1..*]Wraps the specification of alternative sub-trees of formatting objects (each sub-tree being within an fo:multi-case), and controls the switching (activated via fo:multi-toggle) from one alternative to another.
- fo:multi-properties [1..*]Switches between two or more property sets that are associated with a given portion of content.
- fo:index-range-begin [1..*]The beginning of an "indexed range" associated with an index key. The index range is ended by a corresponding fo:index-range-end.
- fo:index-range-end [1..*]The end of an "indexed range" that is started by its matching fo:index-range-begin.
- fo:wrapper [1..*]Specifies inherited properties for a group of formatting objects. It has no additional formatting semantics.
- fo:retrieve-marker [1..*]Used in conjunction with fo:marker to produce running headers or footers.
- fo:retrieve-table-marker [1..*]Used in conjunction with fo:marker to produce table-headers and table-footers whose content can change over different pages, different regions or different columns.
- fo:change-bar-begin [1..*]The beginning of a "change region" that is ended by its matching fo:change-bar-end. The change region is decorated with a change bar down either the start or end edge of the column. The style of the change bar is determined by the value of various change bar related properties.
- fo:change-bar-end [1..*]The end of a "change region" that is started by its matching fo:change-bar-begin.
- fo:float [1..*]Serves two purposes. It can be used so that during the normal placement of content, some related content is formatted into a separate area at beginning of the page (or of some following page) where it is available to be read without immediately intruding on the reader. Alternatively, it can be used when an area is intended to float to one side, with normal content flowing alongside.

Attributes
| Name | Occ | Type | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| source-document | [0..1] | Anonymous | A pointer back to the original XML document(s) used to create this formatting object tree, in accordance with the Dublin Core definition of "Source" ("A Reference to a resource from which the present resource is derived." See: http://purl.org/DC/documents/rec-dces-19990702.htm .) The value is not validated by and has no inherent standardized semantics for any XSL processor. | from group fo:source-document |
| role | [0..1] | Anonymous | A hint for alternate renderers (aural readers, etc.) as to the role of the XML element or elements that were used to construct this formatting object, if one could be identified during XSLT tree construction. This information can be used to prepare alternate renderings when the normal rendering of a formatting object is not appropriate or satisfactory; for example, the role information can be used to provide better aural renderings of visually formatted material. This property is not inherited, but all subsidiary nodes of this formatting object that do not bear a role property should utilize the same alternate presentation properties. (It is not inherited because knowledge of the start and end of the formatting object subtree generated by the element may be needed by the renderer.) | from group fo:role |
| azimuth | [0..1] | Anonymous | CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:azimuth |
| cue-after | [0..1] | fo:cue | Sound to be played before the element to delimit it. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:cue-after |
| cue-before | [0..1] | fo:cue | Sound to be played after the element to delimit it. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:cue-before |
| cue | [0..1] | Anonymous | A shorthand for setting 'cue-before' and 'cue-after'. If two values are given, the first value is 'cue-before' and the second is 'cue-after'. If only one value is given, it applies to both properties. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:cue |
| elevation | [0..1] | Anonymous | CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:elevation |
| pause-after | [0..1] | fo:pause | A pause to be observed before speaking an element's content. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:pause-after |
| pause-before | [0..1] | fo:pause | A pause to be observed after speaking an element's content. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:pause-before |
| pause | [0..1] | Anonymous | A shorthand for setting 'pause-before' and 'pause-after'. If two values are given, the first value is 'pause-before' and the second is 'pause-after'. If only one value is given, it applies to both properties. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:pause |
| pitch | [0..1] | Anonymous | The average pitch (a frequency) of the speaking voice. The average pitch of a voice depends on the voice family. For example, the average pitch for a standard male voice is around 120Hz, but for a female voice, it's around 210Hz. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:pitch |
| pitch-range | [0..1] | fo:number-or-inherit | Variation in average pitch. The perceived pitch of a human voice is determined by the fundamental frequency and typically has a value of 120Hz for a male voice and 210Hz for a female voice. Human languages are spoken with varying inflection and pitch; these variations convey additional meaning and emphasis. Thus, a highly animated voice, i.e., one that is heavily inflected, displays a high pitch range. This property specifies the range over which these variations occur, i.e., how much the fundamental frequency may deviate from the average pitch. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:pitch-range |
| play-during | [0..1] | Anonymous | Similar to the 'cue-before' and 'cue-after' properties, this property specifies a sound to be played as a background while an element's content is spoken. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:play-during |
| richness | [0..1] | fo:number-or-inherit | The richness, or brightness, of the speaking voice. A rich voice will "carry" in a large room, a smooth voice will not. (The term "smooth" refers to how the wave form looks when drawn.). A value between '0' and '100'. The higher the value, the more the voice will carry. A lower value will produce a soft, mellifluous voice. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:richness |
| speak | [0..1] | Anonymous | Whether text will be rendered aurally and if so, in what manner. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:speak |
| speak-header | [0..1] | Anonymous | Whether table headers are spoken before every cell, or only before a cell when that cell is associated with a different header than the previous cell. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:speak-header |
| speak-numeral | [0..1] | Anonymous | How numerals are spoken. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:speak-numeral |
| speak-punctuation | [0..1] | Anonymous | How punctuation is spoken. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:speak-punctuation |
| speech-rate | [0..1] | Anonymous | The speaking rate. Note that both absolute and relative keyword values are allowed (compare with 'font-size'). CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:speech-rate |
| stress | [0..1] | fo:number-or-inherit | The height of "local peaks" in the intonation contour of a voice. For example, English is a stressed language, and different parts of a sentence are assigned primary, secondary, or tertiary stress. The value of 'stress' controls the amount of inflection that results from these stress markers. This property is a companion to the 'pitch-range' property and is provided to allow developers to exploit higher-end auditory displays. A value, between '0' and '100'. The meaning of values depends on the language being spoken. For example, a level of '50' for a standard, English-speaking male voice (average pitch = 122Hz), speaking with normal intonation and emphasis would have a different meaning than '50' for an Italian voice. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:stress |
| voice-family | [0..1] | Anonymous | A comma-separated, prioritized list of voice family names. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:voice-family |
| volume | [0..1] | Anonymous | The median volume of the waveform. In other words, a highly inflected voice at a volume of 50 might peak well above that. The overall values are likely to be human adjustable for comfort, for example with a physical volume control (which would increase both the 0 and 100 values proportionately); what this property does is adjust the dynamic range. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:volume |
| background-attachment | [0..1] | Anonymous | If a background image is specified, this property specifies whether it is fixed with regard to the viewport ('fixed') or scrolls along with the containing block ('scroll'). CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background-attachment |
| background-color | [0..1] | fo:background-color | The background color of an element, either a <color> value or the keyword transparent, to make the underlying colors shine through. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background-color |
| background-image | [0..1] | fo:background-image | The background image of an element. When setting a "background-image", authors should also specify a background-color that will be used when the image is unavailable. When the image is available, it is rendered on top of the background color. (Thus, the color is visible in the transparent parts of the image). CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background-image |
| background-repeat | [0..1] | fo:background-repeat | If a background image is specified, this property specifies whether the image is repeated (tiled), and how. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background-repeat |
| background | [0..1] | Anonymous | A shorthand property for setting the individual background properties (i.e., background-color, background-image, background-repeat, background-attachment and background-position) at the same place in the stylesheet. Value is [<background-color> || <background-image> || <background-repeat> || <background-attachment> || <background-position> ]] | inherit. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background |
| background-position-horizontal | [0..1] | Anonymous | If a "background-image" has been specified, this property specifies its initial position horizontally. | from group fo:background-position-horizontal |
| background-position-vertical | [0..1] | Anonymous | If a "background-image" has been specified, this property specifies its initial position vertically. | from group fo:background-position-vertical |
| background-position | [0..1] | Anonymous | If a background image has been specified, this property specifies its initial position. If only one value is specified, the second value is assumed to be 'center'. If at least one value is not a keyword, then the first value represents the horizontal position and the second represents the vertical position. Negative <percentage> and <length> values are allowed. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:background-position |

| border | [0..1] | fo:border-combined | A shorthand property for setting the same width, color, and style for all four borders, top, bottom, left, and right, of a box. Unlike the shorthand "margin" and "padding" properties, the "border" property cannot set different values on the four borders. To do so, one or more of the other border properties must be used. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:border |

The initial value is 1 plus the column-number of the previous table-column, if there is a previous table-column, and otherwise 1. For an fo:table-cell it specifies the number of the first column to be spanned by the table-cell. The initial value is the current column-number. For the first table-cell in a table-row, the current column number is 1. For other table-cells, the current column-number is the column-number of the previous table-cell in the row plus the number of columns spanned by that previous cell. | from group fo:column-number |

| width | [0..1] | fo:box-dimension | The content width of boxes generated by block-level and replaced elements. This property does not apply to non-replaced inline-level elements. The width of a non-replaced inline element's boxes is that of the rendered content within them (before any relative offset of children). Recall that inline boxes flow into line boxes. The width of line boxes is given by their containing block, but may be shorted by the presence of floats. CSS2 Reference: | from group fo:width |
