Notes

* Generally grouped by the term "text decoration" though that's unimportant for the file format.
** Font Face is the combination of font family, weight, and slant. After discussion on IRC it was decided to store the font face in the doc format. We might store the (family, weight, slant) info but only as hints to help the font substitution dialog find good close matches.
*** Doesn't that mean that we should also define other types of hyphens as shown in the Unicode standard? This one is icky. It might be better to enumerate those either in a sub-dtd or elsewhere in the scribus code. Let's discuss this --Malex 07:10, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
