Author Extensions

Specific actions for DocBook documents are:

Note: DocBook 4 supports only CALS table model. HTML table model is supported only in DocBook 5.
CAUTION:
Column specifications are required for table actions to work properly.

All actions described above are available in the contextual menu, the DocBook4 submenu of the main menu or in the Author custom actions toolbar.

Dragging a file from the Project view or from the DITA Maps Manager view and dropping it into a DocBook 4 document that is edited in Author mode creates a link to the dragged file (the ulink DocBook element) at the drop location. Dragging an image file from the default file system application (Windows Explorer on Windows or Finder on Mac OS X, for example) and dropping it into a DocBook 4 document inserts an image element (the inlinegraphic DocBook element with the fileref attribute) with the location of the dragged file at the drop location (similar with the Insert Graphic toolbar action).
