<p>Books and other paged media often use special techniques to display information. Content may be moved to or generated for special areas of the page, such as running heads or footnotes. Generated content within pages, such as tab leaders or cross-references, helps readers navigate within and between pages.</p>
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS/">CSS</a> is a language for describing the rendering of structured documents
(such as HTML and XML)
on screen, on paper, in speech, etc.

<h2 class="no-num heading settled" id="introduction"><span class="content"> Introduction </span></h2>
<p>Paged media have many <a href="http://w3c.github.io/dpub-pagination/index.html">special requirements</a> for the display of document content, which have evolved over the long history of printed books. Running headers and footers function as aids to navigation. Notes may appear at the bottom of the page, as footnotes. The properties of pages themselves may change based on their content or position in the document. Leaders visually connect related content. Cross-references may require generated text. Some paged media formats such as PDF use bookmarks for navigation.</p>
<p>This module defines new properties and values, so that authors may bring these techniques to paged media.</p>
<h2 class="heading settled" data-level="1" id="running-headers-and-footers"><span class="secno">1. </span><span class="content"> Running headers and footers </span><a class="self-link" href="#running-headers-and-footers"></a></h2>
<a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-css3page">[CSS3PAGE]</a> describes the sixteen page margin boxes which can be used for running headers and footers, but does not describe a mechanism for inserting content in those boxes. This module provides two methods for for doing so. <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-lt="named string" data-noexport="" id="named-string">Named strings<a class="self-link" href="#named-string"></a></dfn> copy text for reuse in margin boxes. <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="running-elements0">Running elements<a class="self-link" href="#running-elements0"></a></dfn> move elements (complete with style and structure) from the document to margin boxes.
<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="1.1" id="named-strings"><span class="secno">1.1. </span><span class="content"> Named strings </span><a class="self-link" href="#named-strings"></a></h3>
The <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="#propdef-string-set">string-set</a> property copies the text content of an element into a <span class="css">named string</span>, which functions as a variable. The text content of this named string can be retrieved using the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-string">string()</a> function. Since these variables may change on a given page, an optional second value for the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-string">string()</a> function allows authors to choose which value on a page is used.

<p>The content values of named strings are assigned at the point when the content box of the element is first created (or would have been created if the element’s display value is none). The <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="entry-value">entry value<a class="self-link" href="#entry-value"></a></dfn> for a page is the assignment in effect at the end of the previous page. The <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="exit-value">exit value<a class="self-link" href="#exit-value"></a></dfn> for a page is the assignment in effect at the end of the current page.</p>
<p>Whenever the value of the element changes, the value of the named string(s) is updated. User agents must be able to recall many values of the named string, as the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-string">string()</a> function can return past, current, or future values of the assignment.</p>

The <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-string">string()</a> function is used to copy the value of a named string to the document, via the <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-content-3/#propdef-content">content</a> property. This function requires one argument, the name of the named string. Since the value of a named string may change several times on a page (as new instances of the element defining the string appear) an optional second argument indicates which value of the named string should be used.
<pre class="prod"><dfn data-dfn-type="function" data-export="" id="funcdef-string">string()<a class="self-link" href="#funcdef-string"></a></dfn> = string( <a class="production" data-link-type="type" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#identifier-value"><custom-ident></a> [ <a data-link-type="grammar" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#comb-comma">,</a> [ first <a data-link-type="grammar" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#comb-one">|</a> start <a data-link-type="grammar" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#comb-one">|</a> last <a data-link-type="grammar" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#comb-one">|</a> first-except] ]<a data-link-type="grammar" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-3/#mult-opt">?</a> )

<p>The second argument of the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-string">string()</a> function is one of the following keywords:</p>
<dl>
<dt id="string-first"><a class="self-link" href="#string-first"></a>first
<dd>The value of the first assignment on the page is used. If there is no assignment on the page, the <span class="css">entry value</span> is used. <code>first</code> is the default value.
<dt id="string-start"><a class="self-link" href="#string-start"></a>start
<dd>If the element is the first element on the page, the value of the first assignment is used. Otherwise the <span class="css">entry value</span> is used. The <span class="css">entry value</span> may be empty if the element hasn’t yet appeared.
<dt id="string-last"><a class="self-link" href="#string-last"></a>last
<dd>The <span class="css">exit value</span> of the named string is used.
<dt id="string-first-except"><a class="self-link" href="#string-first-except"></a>first-except

Many headers and footers cannot be represented only by unformatted text. A book title serving as a running head may contain an italic word, for example. A mechanism is needed to move or copy elements into margin boxes. To do this, we add the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-running">running()</a> value to the position property, and the <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-element">element()</a> value to the content property.
<div class="example" id="example-12384fa7">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-12384fa7"></a>
<pre>@page {
@top { content: element(header); }
}
h1 { position: running(header); }
</pre>
<p>In this example, the <code>h1</code> element is placed in the <code>@top</code> margin box, complete with formatting and any descendant elements. It does not display in the normal document flow.</p>
</div>
<h4 class="heading settled" data-level="1.2.1" id="running-syntax"><span class="secno">1.2.1. </span><span class="content"> The <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-running">running()</a> value </span><a class="self-link" href="#running-syntax"></a></h4>
<p><code>position: running(custom-ident)</code> removes the element (and associated ::before and ::after pseudo-elements) from the normal flow, and makes it available to place in a page margin box using <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-element">element()</a>. The element inherits from its original position in the document, but does not display there.</p>

<p>This idea would be much more useful if we could also copy (rather than just move) elements. That would avoid the duplication of HTML in the example above. </p>
<p>Bert Bos has proposed an alternative syntax, which allows both moving and copying elements into running heads. In the example below, h2 elements appear in their normal place in the document, but are also copied into running heads.</p>

<dt>footnote element
<dd>The element containing the content of the footnote, which will be removed from the flow and displayed as a footnote.
<dt>footnote marker (also known as footnote number)
<dd>A number or symbol adjacent to the footnote body, identifying the particular footnote. The footnote marker should use the same number or symbol as the corresponding footnote call, although the marker may contain additional punctuation.
<dt>footnote body
<dd>The footnote marker is placed before the footnote element, and together they represent the footnote body, which will be placed in the footnote area.
<dt>footnote call (also known as footnote reference)
<dd>A number or symbol, found in the main text, which points to the footnote body.
<dt>footnote area
<dd>The page area used to display footnotes.

<dd>A horizontal rule is often used to separate the footnote area from the rest of the page. The separator (and the entire footnote area) cannot be rendered on a page with no footnotes.

<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="2.2" id="creating-footnotes"><span class="secno">2.2. </span><span class="content"> Creating footnotes </span><a class="self-link" href="#creating-footnotes"></a></h3>
An element becomes a footnote by applying <code>float: footnote</code> to that element. This triggers the following actions:
<ol>
<li> The footnote element is removed from the flow, and a <code>::footnote-call</code> pseudo-element is inserted in its place, which serves as a reference to the footnote.
<li> A <code>::footnote-marker</code> pseudo-element, identifying the footnote, is placed at the beginning of the footnote element. Together this is the footnote body.
<li>The <span class="css">footnote counter</span> is incremented.
<li>The footnote body is placed in the footnote area at the bottom of the page. Footnote elements from a given page are placed in the footnote area of that page in document order.
</ol>

<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="2.4" id="footnote-area"><span class="secno">2.4. </span><span class="content"> The footnote area </span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-area"></a></h3>
A <a href="http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-page/#page-area">page area</a> that can be used to display footnotes is described in the <a href="http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-page/#page-context">page context</a> using an <code>@footnote</code> rule. This rule defines a box that, if used, will contain all the footnote elements that appear on that page.

<p class="issue" id="issue-829ce977"><a class="self-link" href="#issue-829ce977"></a>How would one describe this in the grammar of CSS3-Page?</p>

The bottom margin edge of the footnote area is positioned so that it touches the bottom of the page area. The footnote area can only contain footnotes.
<p class="issue" id="issue-ab22b570"><a class="self-link" href="#issue-ab22b570"></a>How do footnotes work in multi-column text? Prince uses <code>float: prince-column-footnote</code> to create a footnote at the bottom of a column rather than the bottom of a page.</p>
<p class="issue" id="issue-165f8769"><a class="self-link" href="#issue-165f8769"></a>Implementations that support footnotes generally support page floats like <code>float: bottom</code>. Page floats should end up above the footnote area. How might this be specified?</p>
<h4 class="heading settled" data-level="2.4.2" id="footnote-area-size"><span class="secno">2.4.2. </span><span class="content">Size of the footnote area</span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-area-size"></a></h4>
<p>The <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css2/visudet.html#propdef-max-height">max-height</a> property on the footnote area limits the size of this area, unless the page contains only footnotes (as may happen on the last page of a document).</p>
<p>Since it is undesirable for a page to consist only of footnotes, user agents <em class="RFC2119">may</em> set a default max-height value on the footnote area.</p>
<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="2.5" id="footnote-counters"><span class="secno">2.5. </span><span class="content">The Footnote Counter</span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-counters"></a></h3>
<p>The <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="footnote-counter">footnote counter<a class="self-link" href="#footnote-counter"></a></dfn> is a predefined <a href="http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-lists/#counter">counter</a> associated with the footnote element. Its value is the number or symbol used to identify the footnote. This value is used in both the footnote call and the footnote marker. It should be incremented for each footnote.</p>
<h4 class="heading settled" data-level="2.5.1" id="footnote-counter-values"><span class="secno">2.5.1. </span><span class="content">Values of the footnote counter</span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-counter-values"></a></h4>
<p>The footnote counter, like other counters, may use any <a href="http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-counter-styles-3/#counter-style">counter style</a>. Footnotes often use a sequence of symbols.</p>
<div class="example" id="example-122e53d2">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-122e53d2"></a>
<pre>::footnote-call { content: counter(footnote, symbols('*', '†', '‡', '§')); }
::footnote-marker { content: counter(footnote, symbols('*', '†', '‡', '§')) '. '; }
</pre>
</div>
<h4 class="heading settled" data-level="2.5.2" id="resetting-footnote-counter"><span class="secno">2.5.2. </span><span class="content">Resetting the footnote counter</span><a class="self-link" href="#resetting-footnote-counter"></a></h4>
<p>The footnote counter may be reset on each page.</p>
<div class="example" id="example-6dd13884">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-6dd13884"></a>
<pre>@page {
counter-reset: footnote;
@footnote { … }
}
</pre>
</div>
<p>Note that the value of the footnote counter should depend on the position of the footnote element in the document tree, not where it is eventually placed. A footnote element may sometimes be placed on the page after the footnote call, but the same counter value must be used for both.</p>
<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="2.6" id="footnote-call"><span class="secno">2.6. </span><span class="content"> The <code>footnote-call</code> pseudo-element </span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-call"></a></h3>
A <code>::footnote-call</code> pseudo-element is inserted in place of the footnote element when the latter is removed from the flow. By default, the content of this pseudo-element is the value of the footnote counter, styled as a superscripted number.
<div class="example" id="example-bf81cd18">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-bf81cd18"></a>
<pre>::footnote-call {
content: counter(footnote);
vertical-align: baseline;
font-size: 100%;
line-height: inherit;

}
</pre>
</div>
<h3 class="heading settled" data-level="2.7" id="footnote-marker"><span class="secno">2.7. </span><span class="content"> The <code>footnote-marker</code> pseudo-element </span><a class="self-link" href="#footnote-marker"></a></h3>
The <code>::footnote-marker</code> pseudo-element represents the footnote element’s marker, the number or symbol that identifies each footnote. This pseudo-element behaves like a <code>::marker</code> pseudo-element, as defined in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-css3list">[CSS3LIST]</a>. It is placed at the beginning of the superior parent’s content, and is inline by default. The <code>::footnote-marker</code> can be styled just as other <code>::marker</code> elements can be. The default style should include <code>list-style-position: inside</code>.
<div class="example" id="example-02179062">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-02179062"></a>
<pre>::footnote-marker {
content: counter(footnote);
}
::footnote-marker::after {

<p>Rendering footnotes can be complex. If a footnote falls near the bottom of the page, there may not be enough room on the page for the footnote body. The <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="#propdef-footnote-policy">footnote-policy</a> property allows authors some influence over the rendering of difficult pages.</p>

A paginated document consists of a sequence of pages. <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-css3page">[CSS3PAGE]</a> defines <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="page-selectors">page selectors<a class="self-link" href="#page-selectors"></a></dfn>, which allow the selection of the first page of the document, left and right pages, and blank pages.

The <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-nth">nth()</a> page pseudo-class allows the selection of arbitrary document pages. This pseudo-class takes an argument of the form <a href="http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-syntax/#anb">An + B</a> as defined in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-css3syn">[CSS3SYN]</a>. When applied to the default @page rule, <a class="css" data-link-type="maybe" href="#funcdef-nth">nth()</a> selects the document page whose index matches the argument.

Many paginated documents have a repeating structure, consisting of many chapters, sections, or articles. The first page of each subdivision often requires special treatment, but <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-css3page">[CSS3PAGE]</a> doesn’t define a way to select the first page of each chapter (as distinct from the first page of the entire document).
<p>When the <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="https://drafts.csswg.org/css-page-3/#propdef-page">page</a> property is applied to an element that also has a forced break property applied, a <span class="css">page group</span> is created. The <dfn data-dfn-type="dfn" data-noexport="" id="page-group">page group<a class="self-link" href="#page-group"></a></dfn> is the collection of all pages created by an instance of that element. When a new instance of the element is rendered, a new <span class="css">page group</span> is started.</p>
<p>A page may be part of several page groups, as a given <span class="css">page group</span> may have ancestors or descendants that are part of another <span class="css">page group</span>.</p>

<ul>
<li>The spec has a new editor.
<li>All text and examples rewritten.

</ul>
<p>Differences with the <a href="http://books.spec.whatwg.org/">WHATWG CSS Books</a> specification:</p>
<ul>
<li>Added <span class="css">attr(<identifier>)</span> value to <a class="property" data-link-type="propdesc" href="#propdef-string-set">string-set</a> property. This is supported by both Prince and AntennaHouse.
<li> <a href="http://books.spec.whatwg.org/">CSS Books</a> does not have the <a href="#propdef-footnote-display">footnote-display</a> property.
<li> <a href="http://books.spec.whatwg.org/">CSS Books</a> does not have the <a href="#footnote-policy">footnote-policy</a> property.
<li> The relationship between the <code>nth()</code> page pseudo-class and the page-group concept is clarified, which may make the page-group property redundant.
<li> This specification does not redefine the <code>:first</code> page pseudo-selector to select the first page of a page-group.
<li>
This specification does not consider:
<ol>
<li> Named areas
<li> Selecting elements within pages

<h2 class="no-ref no-num heading settled" id="conformance"><span class="content"> Conformance</span><a class="self-link" href="#conformance"></a></h2>
<h3 class="no-ref heading settled" id="conventions"><span class="content"> Document conventions</span><a class="self-link" href="#conventions"></a></h3>
<p>Conformance requirements are expressed with a combination of
descriptive assertions and RFC 2119 terminology. The key words "MUST",
"MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT",
"RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in the normative parts of this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
However, for readability, these words do not appear in all uppercase
letters in this specification. </p>
<p>All of the text of this specification is normative except sections
explicitly marked as non-normative, examples, and notes. <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-rfc2119">[RFC2119]</a></p>
<p>Examples in this specification are introduced with the words "for example"
or are set apart from the normative text with <code>class="example"</code>,
like this: </p>
<div class="example" id="example-f839f6c8">
<a class="self-link" href="#example-f839f6c8"></a>
<p>This is an example of an informative example.</p>
</div>
<p>Informative notes begin with the word "Note" and are set apart from the
normative text with <code>class="note"</code>, like this: </p>
<p class="note" role="note">Note, this is an informative note.</p>
<p>Advisements are normative sections styled to evoke special attention and are
set apart from other normative text with <code><strong class="advisement"></code>, like
this: <strong class="advisement"> UAs MUST provide an accessible alternative. </strong> </p>
<h3 class="no-ref heading settled" id="conformance-classes"><span class="content"> Conformance classes</span><a class="self-link" href="#conformance-classes"></a></h3>
<p>Conformance to this specification
is defined for three conformance classes: </p>
<dl>
<dt>style sheet
<dd>A <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#style-sheet">CSS
style sheet</a>.
<dt>renderer
<dd>A <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#user-agent">UA</a> that interprets the semantics of a style sheet and renders
documents that use them.
<dt>authoring tool
<dd>A <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#user-agent">UA</a> that writes a style sheet.
</dl>
<p>A style sheet is conformant to this specification
if all of its statements that use syntax defined in this module are valid
according to the generic CSS grammar and the individual grammars of each
feature defined in this module. </p>
<p>A renderer is conformant to this specification
if, in addition to interpreting the style sheet as defined by the
appropriate specifications, it supports all the features defined
by this specification by parsing them correctly
and rendering the document accordingly. However, the inability of a
UA to correctly render a document due to limitations of the device
does not make the UA non-conformant. (For example, a UA is not
required to render color on a monochrome monitor.) </p>
<p>An authoring tool is conformant to this specification
if it writes style sheets that are syntactically correct according to the
generic CSS grammar and the individual grammars of each feature in
this module, and meet all other conformance requirements of style sheets
as described in this module. </p>
<h3 class="no-ref heading settled" id="partial"><span class="content"> Partial implementations</span><a class="self-link" href="#partial"></a></h3>
<p>So that authors can exploit the forward-compatible parsing rules to
assign fallback values, CSS renderers <strong>must</strong> treat as invalid (and <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#ignore">ignore
as appropriate</a>) any at-rules, properties, property values, keywords,
and other syntactic constructs for which they have no usable level of
support. In particular, user agents <strong>must not</strong> selectively
ignore unsupported component values and honor supported values in a single
multi-value property declaration: if any value is considered invalid
(as unsupported values must be), CSS requires that the entire declaration
be ignored.</p>
<h3 class="no-ref heading settled" id="experimental"><span class="content"> Experimental implementations</span><a class="self-link" href="#experimental"></a></h3>
<p>To avoid clashes with future CSS features, the CSS2.1 specification
reserves a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#vendor-keywords">prefixed
syntax</a> for proprietary and experimental extensions to CSS. </p>
<p>Prior to a specification reaching the Candidate Recommendation stage
in the W3C process, all implementations of a CSS feature are considered
experimental. The CSS Working Group recommends that implementations
use a vendor-prefixed syntax for such features, including those in
W3C Working Drafts. This avoids incompatibilities with future changes
in the draft. </p>
<h3 class="no-ref heading settled" id="testing"><span class="content"> Non-experimental implementations</span><a class="self-link" href="#testing"></a></h3>
<p>Once a specification reaches the Candidate Recommendation stage,
non-experimental implementations are possible, and implementors should
release an unprefixed implementation of any CR-level feature they
can demonstrate to be correctly implemented according to spec. </p>
<p>To establish and maintain the interoperability of CSS across
implementations, the CSS Working Group requests that non-experimental
CSS renderers submit an implementation report (and, if necessary, the
testcases used for that implementation report) to the W3C before
releasing an unprefixed implementation of any CSS features. Testcases
submitted to W3C are subject to review and correction by the CSS
Working Group. </p>
<p>Further information on submitting testcases and implementation reports
can be found from on the CSS Working Group’s website at <a href="http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/">http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/</a>.
Questions should be directed to the <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-css-testsuite">public-css-testsuite@w3.org</a> mailing list. </p>
