<graphic> Graphic

Description of and pointer to an external file containing a still image.

Usage/Remarks

The @is-form attribute can be used to indicate that the graphic contains a form. What constitutes a “form” is not defined by NISO STS.

When Content is a Form

Two attributes are available to describe the graphic when it contains a form:
  • @is-form can indicate that the graphic is a form. What constitutes a “form” is not defined by NISO STS.
  • @form-type can identify the type of the form. If the form is not one of the listed types, @custom-type may provide the type (see below).

Custom Form Type (@custom-type)

@form-type has as its values a fixed list of form types. If your form is not one of the listed types, you can use @custom-type to describe the form type. Set the value of @form-type to “custom” and also use @custom-type to hold any form type you require. For example: 
<graphic is-form="form" form-type="custom" 
    custom-type="template" xlink:href="..." .../>
Related Elements
This Suite contains several elements that describe and point to non-XML material: <graphic>, <inline-graphic>, <media>, and <inline-media>. The elements <graphic> and <inline-graphic> contain a pointer to a still image (such as a photograph, diagram, line drawing, etc.) that is part of the document. The elements <media> and <inline-media> contain a pointer to a non-XML, frequently binary, object (such as a movie, audio clip, dataset, pronunciation file, or other non-XML format).
