The optional <code class="literal">link</code> attribute is used to link the image to an

The optional <code class="literal">scaledwidth</code> attribute is only used in DocBook block

scales the images to 75% of the available print width:

Allowed values are <code class="literal">center</code>, <code class="literal">left</code> and <code class="literal">right</code>. For example:

|
|
1415
|
-
there is another type of conditional inclusion based on attribute

|
1416
|
-
references, the latter being evaluated when the output file is
|
|
1417
|
-
written.</p><p>These examples illustrate the two forms of conditional inclusion. The
|
|
1418
|
-
only difference between them is that the first is evaluated at program
|
|
1419
|
-
load time while the second is evaluated when the output is written:</p><pre class="literallayout">ifdef::world[]

1421
|
-
endif::world[]</pre><pre class="literallayout">{world#}Hello World!</pre><p>In this example when the <code class="literal">{world#}</code> conditional attribute reference
|

1422
|
-
is evaluates to a zero length string if <code class="literal">world</code> is defined; if <code class="literal">world</code>
|
|
1423

is not defined the whole line is dropped.</p><p>The subtle difference between the two types of conditional inclusion
|
|
1424
|
-
has implications for <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> configuration files: <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> has to
|
|
1425
|
-
read the configuration files <span class="strong"><strong>before</strong></span> reading the source document,
|
|
1426
|
-
this is necessary because the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> source syntax is mostly defined
|
|
1427
|
-
by the configuration files. This means that any lines of markup
|
|
1428
|
-
enveloped by conditional inclusion macros will be included or excluded
|
|
1429
|
-
<span class="strong"><strong>before</strong></span> the attribute entries in the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> document header are
|
|
1430
|
-
read, so setting related attributes in the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> source document
|
|
1431
|
-
header will have no effect. If you need to control configuration file
|
|
1432
|
-
markup inclusion with attribute entries in the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> source file
|
|
1433
|
-
header you need to use attribute references to control inclusion
|
|
1434
|
-
instead of conditional inclusion macros (attribute references are

substituted at the time the output is written rather than at program

Since word list entries are processed as Python regular expressions
|
|
2084
|
-
you need to be careful to escape regular expression special
|
|
2085
|
-
characters.

</li><li>
|
|
2087
|
-
By default Special Words are substituted before Inline Macros, this
|
|
2088
|
-
may lead to undesirable consequences. For example the special word
|
|
2089
|
-
<code class="literal">foobar</code> would be expanded inside the macro call
|
|
2090
|
-
<code class="literal">http://www.foobar.com[]</code>. A possible solution is to emphasize
|
|
2091
|
-
whole words only by defining the word using regular expression
|
|
2092
|
-
characters, for example <code class="literal">\bfoobar\b</code>.
|
|
2093
|
-
</li><li>
|
|
2094
|
-
If the first matched character of a special word is a backslash then
|
|
2095
|
-
the remaining characters are output without markup i.e. the
|
|
2096
|
-
backslash can be used to escape special word markup. For example
|
|
2097
|
-
the special word <code class="literal">\\?\b[Tt]en\b</code> will mark up the words <code class="literal">Ten</code> and
|
|
2098
|
-
<code class="literal">ten</code> only if they are not preceded by a backslash.

these three files (and a Python interpreter) the recipient can

3173
|
-
regenerate the HMTL output:</p><pre class="literallayout">$ ./asciidoc.py -eb xhtml11 mydoc.txt</pre><p>The <code class="literal">-e</code> (<code class="literal">--no-conf</code>) option excludes the use of implicit

you need to be aware of:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
|

3265

If you are generating output documents using a DocBook toolchain

then you should set the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsciiDoc</em></span> <code class="literal">lang</code> attribute to the appropriate

language (it defaults to <code class="literal">en</code> (English)). This will ensure things

like table of contents, revision history, figure and table captions
|
|
3269
|

and admonition captions are output in the specified language.

3271
|
-
</p><pre class="literallayout">$ a2x -a lang=es doc/article.txt</pre></li><li>

3272

If you are outputting html or xhtml directly from <code class="literal">asciidoc(1)</code> you’ll

3273

need to set the various <code class="literal">*_caption</code> attributes to match your target

language (see the list of captions and titles in the <code class="literal">[attributes]</code>
|
|
3275
|
-
section of the default <code class="literal">asciidoc.conf</code> file). The easiest way is to
|
|
3276
|
-
create a language <code class="literal">.conf</code> file (see the example <code class="literal">lang-es.conf</code> file

Indented lists with preceding blank lines are sometimes mistaken

for literal (indented) paragraphs. You can work around this by
|
|
3304
|
-
deleting the preceding blank line, or inserting a space in the

3305
|
-
preceding blank lines, or putting a list continuation character

(<code class="literal">+</code>) in the preceding blank line.

|
|
3311
|

If a closing block delimiter is not preceded by a blank line it is

sometimes mistaken for a title underline. A workaround is to insert

3313
|

a blank line before the closing delimiter.

</li><li>

If a list block delimiter is mistaken for a title underline precede

it with a blank line.

Lines within a paragraph beginning with a period will be highlighted

as block titles. For example:

</p><pre class="literallayout">.chm file.</pre><p>To work around this restriction move the last word of the previous

line to the start of the current (although words starting with a

period should probably be quoted monospace which would also get around

the problem).</p></li></ul></div><div class="tip" style="margin-left: 0; margin-right: 10%;"><table border="0" summary="Tip"><tr><td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25"><img alt="[Tip]" src="./images/icons/tip.png" /></td><th align="left"></th></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="top"><p>Sometimes incorrect highlighting is caused by preceding lines
