Attributesatt.global (@xml:id, @n, @xml:lang, @rend, @rendition, @xml:base, @xml:space) (att.global.linking (@corresp, @synch, @sameAs, @copyOf, @next, @prev, @exclude, @select)) (att.global.analytic (@ana)) (att.global.facs (@facs)) (att.global.change (@change)) att.dimensions (@unit, @quantity, @extent, @precision, @scope) (att.ranging (@atLeast, @atMost, @min, @max, @confidence))
dim(dimension) indicates whether the space is horizontal or vertical.
Status Recommended
Legal values are:
horizontal
the space is horizontal.
vertical
the space is vertical.
Note
For irregular shapes in two dimensions, the value for this attribute should reflect the more important of the two dimensions. In conventional left-right scripts, a space with both vertical and horizontal components should be classed as vertical.
resp(responsible party) indicates the individual responsible for identifying and measuring the space.
Status Optional
Datatype 

<rng:ref name="data.pointer"/>
