Building Structured Documents
Documentation projects often need to produce documents that are output in a variety of formats.
For example, the same text that describes how to use a software program may need to be output as
a printed manual, an HTML page, and a PostScript file. The standards that have been embraced
most recently by the Linux community for creating what are referred to as structured documents
are SGML and XML. The specific document type definition (DTD) used to produce Linux documentation
is called DocBook.
Understanding SGML and XML
Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) was created to provide a standard way of marking
text so that it could be output later in a variety of formats.
