Re: [gutvol-d] PG-TEI: feature request.

There is a rend="font-family(x)" that will work for at least some of that. I know it would work for the roman, I think it would work for blackletter (that is a font change right?). I'm not sure what red-ink means, so I don't know if that one would be covered. (NOTE: This rend is mentioned in section 6.1 in the guideline file) Give me a little better explanation of red-ink (and maybe a link to an example so that I can see what you mean too) and I'll try to see if we have anything currently that would work.

I'm looking at Version 0.3 of PG-TEI. If that is no longer the current version, apologies. The following are highlighting modes (inline 'rend' values) that I've seen employed with some frequency in public domain printed materials, that are not presently supported by PG-TEI.
roman (when the 'default' typeface is not roman) blackletter red-ink

Not much to explain. Historically, printers used red ink to highlight important things. The most famous example being that in many editions of the Gospels, words spoken by Christ are printed in red. Mostly, I'm just asking for control over font color. I asked for red in particular because if there are philosophical or technical reasons why the markup should not allow arbitrary control of font color, it would at least be nice to be able to use red. -- RS
