Re: [docbook-apps] How to reduce size of text in a <para>

Title: Re: [docbook-apps] How to reduce size of text in a <para>

Not quite.  How do I add the attribute 'size' to the DTD for the element 'para' so the source using <para size="Small"> will validate OK. I have a local-adds entity which does this for 'literallayout' using

<!ENTITY % local.literallayout.attrib "size CDATA #IMPLIED" >

What is the equivalent for para ?

<!ENTITY % local.para.attrib "size CDATA #IMPLIED" >

doesn't work.
