Extension CSS Properties

Table 2. The following extension properties are supported by Oxygen PDF Chemistry
Property  
-oxy-alt-text Used to specify an alternative description for the element that is used by the PDF readers. 
image {
  -oxy-alt-text: "Image about: " attr(href);
}
-oxy-link Used to create links in the PDF output.
link {
  -oxy-link: attr(href);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-author Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents the author of the publication.
meta[name='author'] {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-author: attr(value);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-custom Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents a generic custom document property. Should have two strings, the name and the value.
metadata {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-custom: attr(name) attr(value);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-description Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents the description of the publication. 
meta[name='description'] {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-description: attr(value);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-keyword Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents a single keyword from the publication. The processor should aggregate all keyword definitions and separate them by comma.
keyword {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-keyword: content(text);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-keywords Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents the keywords of the publication. The value should contain the keywords separated by commas.
meta[name='keywords'] {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-keywords: attr(value);
}
-oxy-pdf-meta-title Used to forward meta-information to the PDF. Represents the title of the publication. 
meta[name='title'] {
  -oxy-pdf-meta-title: attr(value);
}
-oxy-pdf-tag-type Maps an element to a PDF accessibility tag. 
section {
  -oxy-pdf-tag-type: "Sect";
}
-oxy-style An Oxygen extension used to define additional styles for an element (for example, collected from an attribute). 
div {
     font-weight:bold;
     color:red;
     -oxy-style:attr(style);
}
The value of the style attribute from the div element is parsed as a collection of CSS properties and applied over the current element styles. For instance, if the style attribute has the value color:green; border: 1pt solid red, it will combine with the existing properties, resulting in:
font-weight:bold; 
color:green;
border: 1pt solid red
