Subject: Re: [office] ODF 1.1 requirements.
Why not make a reference test doc library? Aus mein Blackberry/from my Blackberry ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Pawson <dave.pawson@gmail.com> To: OpenDocument Mailing List <office@lists.oasis-open.org> Sent: Mon Jun 30 04:45:03 2008 Subject: [office] ODF 1.1 requirements. I realise that ODF moved from RFC2119 to ISO/IEC Directives, part 2, 2004. That seems to have had some impact. I'm starting to look at ODF from a testability perspective and having great difficulty devising any test, since the standard seems lacking in firm requirements? An example without a single 'requirement', as in, the para contains a SHALL, MUST, MAY clause is shown below. It is not alone in this respect. A black and white interpretation of section 2.8 could be interpreted as having no requirements, therefore there are no compliance issues, no matter how a vendor uses master pages. Does this TC intend to add requirements for this para in 1.2 which might then be tested for compliance with the standard? regards 2.8 Page Styles and Layout The style and layout of the pages in a document is determined by: * Page Layouts * Master Pages A page layout describes the physical properties or geometry of a page, for example, page size, margins, header height, and footer height. A master page is a template for pages in a document. It contains a reference to a page layout which specifies the physical properties of the page and can also contain static content that is displayed on all pages in the document that use the master page. Examples of static content are headers, footers, or background graphics. If a text or spreadsheet document is displayed in a paged layout, the master pages are instantiated to generate a sequence of pages containing the document content. When a master page is instantiated, an empty page is generated with the properties of the page master and the static content of the master page. The body of the page is then filled with content. If multiple pages in a document use the same master page, the master page can be instantiated several times within the document. In text and spreadsheet documents, a master page can be assigned to paragraph and table styles using a style:master-page-name attribute. Each time the paragraph or table style is applied to text, a page break is inserted before the paragraph or table. The page that starts at the page break position uses the specified master page. In drawings and presentations, master pages can be assigned to drawing pages using a style:parent-style-name attribute. Note: The OpenDocument paging methodology differs significantly from the methodology used in [XSL]. In XSL, headers and footers are contained within page sequences that also contain the document content. In the OpenDocument format, headers and footers are contained in page styles. With either approach, the content of headers and footers can be changed or omitted without affecting the document content. Page layouts are described in section 14.3. Master pages are described in section 14.4. -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the OASIS TC that generates this mail.
