# style-type

# Style Type

Description or explanation of the stylistic difference being recorded (for example, illuminated letters, drop cap).

## Remarks

This attribute could be used to point to a <custom-meta> pair that records addition styling information.

For example, the front matter might contain <custom-meta> elements defining styles named “`Amsterdam`”, “`Baltimore`”, and “`Casablanca`”, which differ in their indentation, thus:

          <custom-meta-group>
    	<custom-meta>
    	  <meta-name>Amsterdam</meta-name>
    	  <meta-value>text-indent: 0;</meta-value>
    	</custom-meta>
    	<custom-meta>
    	  <meta-name>Baltimore</meta-name>
    	  <meta-value>text-indent: 1em;</meta-value>
    	</custom-meta>
    	<custom-meta>
    	  <meta-name>Casablanca</meta-name>
    	  <meta-value>text-indent: 3em;</meta-value>
    	</custom-meta>
          </custom-meta-group>

When it is necessary to assign a style type manually to an element instead of handling it through a stylesheet, individual elements which can bear this attribute can be assigned the appropriate style, thus:

        <p style-type="Amsterdam">
          The assessed working position is the feeding and cutting of
          a stack of paper with a paper trimmer press, powered by
          compressed air and elecricity.  Three basic tasks
          have been identified and analysed:<list>
    	<list-item>
    	  <p>positioning of the paper stack;</p>
    	</list-item>
    	<list-item>
    	  <p>pressure on the paper stack;</p>
    	</list-item>
    	<list-item>
    	  <p>paper cutting.</p>
    	</list-item>
          </list>
        </p>
        ...
        <p style-type="Casablanca">
          For the purposes of this document, the following
          terms and definitions apply.
        </p>
