  • Conference paper
Offene Multifunktionale Büroarbeitsplätze und Bildschirmtext

Part of the book series: Informatik-Fachberichte ((INFORMATIK,volume 92))

Abstract

Text processing and word processing systems typically require additional information to be interspersed among the natural text of the document being processed. This added information, called “markup,” serves two purposes:

  1. 1.

    Separating the logical elements of the document; and

  2. 2.

    Specifying the processing functions to be performed on those elements.
