Subject: appendix vs. reference?
I'm looking at the docbook 5 documentation. Here's one thing I can't get my head around. What's the difference between an appendix tag and a reference tag? http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/reference.html http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/appendix.html I have some technical information and tables I wish to put at the end for the reader's reference. But I'm not sure whether i should do an appendix or a reference. I plan to have 3 or 4 appendices about various unrelated topics. i see that reference has a lot of refentries amd refentries has a a lot of children, so I understand that reference is probably more structured. What kinds of content would be better suited as a reference instead of an appendix and vice versa? At what point do you decide an appendix should be a reference? rj -- Robert Nagle
