# <front>

# Front Matter

Container element for the metadata of a standard.

## Remarks

The <front> element contains all the information needed to print the cover page, front matter, and back cover of the standard.

## Related Elements

A standard or standards-related document <standard> may be divided into several components:

1. the <front> (the metadata or header information, which contains metadata specific to one or more of the responsible standards-development organizations tagged as <iso-meta>, <cen-meta>, or <nat-meta>);
2. the <body> (the textual and graphical content of the standard);
3. any <back> (any ancillary information such as a glossary, reference list, or appendix);

## Model Description

A <front> element can contain an optional <iso-meta> element, followed by an optional <cen-meta> element, followed by zero or more <nat-meta> elements. At least one metadata element must be included.

### This element may be contained in:

<standard>
