processing facilitates publishing in additional media, such as CD-ROM and the Internet, as
well as other applications, such as database distribution.
Often, the same information is published in multiple forms. In such cases, its appearance
may change according to the purpose and capabilities of each medium. The appropriate
rendering enhances the reader's comprehension of the text. Since markup prepares
information for multiple presentations without making assumptions about its rendering,
additional information is needed to control each rendering. This formatting information,
pertinent to an application, is nevertheless outside the scope of markup itself.
Consider, for instance, a repair manual stored in markup. It may include procedures such
as the following:
<taskmodule skill="adv">
<heading>Tuning a 5450A Widget</heading>
<warning type="1">Do not hit a widget with a hammer.
Doing so could cause explosive decompression.</warning>
<background>The 5450A Widget needs tuning on a
<emph>monthly basis</emph> to maintain optimum
performance. The procedure should take less than 15
minutes.</background>
<procedure>
<step time="1">Remove the tuning knob cover.</step>
<step time="5">Use the calibration tool to adjust the
setting to initial specifications.</step>
</procedure>
</taskmodule>
The markup is passed through a rendering application to present the mechanics with a
formatted version:
Tuning a 5450A Widget
This procedure requires advanced certification.

decompression.
