Some fonts have a variety of bold and italic faces, so it’s not easy and sometimes impossible to figure out which to use in any given scenario. To overcome this there are a number of attributes that can be specified on the <i> and <b> tags, namely:
1 2 3 4 |
boldface plainface italicface bolditalicface |
For Example:
1 2 3 4 |
<b boldface = "77 Bold Condensed" plainface = "47 Light Condensed" bolditalicface ="67 Medium Condensed Oblique"> <i boldface = "77 Bold Condensed" plainface = "47 Light Condensed" bolditalicface ="67 Medium Condensed Oblique"> <b boldface = "77 Bold Condensed" plainface = "47 Light Condensed" bolditalicface ="67 Medium Condensed Oblique"> </b boldface = "77 Bold Condensed" plainface = "47 Light Condensed"> |
When the tag is processed, EasyCatalog attempts to apply the correct face from the specified attribute.
Raw data usually doesn’t contain this information, so it can be added using the “Cleansing” field option. E.g:
1 |
<i>=<i italicface == "Oldstyle Italic">;</i>=</i plainface == "???????">; |
Notice – double up the “=” inside the pair. This is needed to make clear the “real” equals in the cleansing pair.
