alternativeversion

alternativeversion contains an alternative version of an object (usually a figure). For example an image might be supplied as black and white for print, but in colour for online delivery. Explanatory text intended to accompany the alternative version should be captured in alternativeversion's legend.

In the following example, figure 6 (f6) is available both in b&w and in colour. Note that

  1. The filenames of each version are given in the respective objectsource elements (ejb_2127_f6.gif [b&w] and ejb_2127_f6_cow.gif [colour]). See the special topic on filenaming for information on filenaming in DTD 4.
  2. The ID attributes in the alternative version are different to the source version (an additional "_cow" which matches the filename)
  3. The two versions have slightly different legends (additional text shown in bold)

The usual requirement for figures where alternative versions are available is that the original version and legend are printed while the alternative version is displayed online.
