There is a variety of style parameters that can be defined with each control representing a text block: background color, foreground color, margins, padding definitions, borders, etc.
You either can define this parameter with every control or you can define explicit styles. By referencing the name of the style from the controls, the style parameters are taken over automatically. Of course you can still override style definitions locally.
The CISFO:STYLE2 control represents a certain style. It is placed into the
CISFO:STYLECLASSES2 container, directly below the page control (CISFO:FOPPAGE2). In the FO
form, you refer to this style by using the control's name (property
stylename
).

Font | |||
fontfamily |
This attribute specifies a priorized list of font family names and/or generic family names. To deal with the problem that a single font may not contain glyphs to display all the characters in a document, or that not all fonts are available on all systems, this property allows authors to specify a list of fonts, all of the same style and size, that are tried in sequence to see if they contain a glyph for a certain character. This list is called a "font set". |
Optional |
Helvetica Times Courier Symbol ZapfDingbats |
fontsize |
This attribute describes the size of the font when set as "solid". The font size corresponds to the em square, a concept used in typography. Note that certain glyphs may bleed outside their em squares. Some valid values are "xxsmall", "medium", "smaller" or a concrete size, e.g. "110%". |
Optional |
8pt 10pt 16pt |
fontstyle |
This attribute requests normal (sometimes referred to as "roman" or "upright"), italic, and oblique faces within a font family. Valid values are "normal", "italic" and "oblique". |
Optional |
normal italic oblique |
fontvariant |
In a small-caps font, the glyphs for lowercase letters look similar to the uppercase ones, but in a smaller size and with slightly different proportions. The "font-variant" property requests such a font for bicameral (having two cases, as with Roman script). This property has no visible effect for scripts that are unicameral (having only one case, as with most of the world's writing systems). Valid values are "normal" and "small-caps". |
Optional |
normal small-caps |
fontweight |
This attribute specifies the weight of the font. Some valid values are 'normal', 'bold', 'bolder', 'lighter', '100' or '900', where 'normal' is the same as '400', 'bold' is the same as '700'. |
Optional |
normal bold 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 |
