I don't know DITA but <emphasis role="bold"> is not the equivalent of <b> in HTML. DocBook has no equivalent of <b> in HTML. The equivalent of <emphasis role="bold"> in HTML is <em style="font-weight: bold; font-style: plain"> or perhaps <strong>. It is not <b>. MS OOXML likely attempts to match the presentation based semantics of Word. It is not at all like DocBook. I suspect ODF is similar in that respect. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu Java I/O 2nd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeaulait.org/books/javaio2/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596527500/ref=nosim/cafeaulaitA/
