Hello,
The W3C version of the PWG's XHTML-Print has achieved public status as W3C
Last Call Working Draft. I am cordially invite your review of the document
and eagerly await you comments. Please feel free to forward this notice to
anyone you think should review and comment on the draft.
Substantive changes to the draft with respect to the PWG Proposed Standard:
1. Required support for the multiplexed document format as described in
Appendix B.2
(http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Group/2003/WD-xhtml-print-20030723/#a_inline.2).
An informative note is added on the format of the such documents and printer
image processing.
2. Required support for the script module so that a printer can detect and
discard a script and render the contents of the noscript element instead of
the script.
3. Annotation of element attributes in terms of required processing: must,
should, may, and N/A.
4. required support for the hidden form element so that it can be detected
and its content discarded.
5. more precision in the processing of
5.1 td and th align and valign attributes
5.2 kinds of URIs
5.3 types of images

XHTML-Print is member of the family of XHTML Languages defined by the
Modularization of XHTML [XHTMLMOD]. It is designed to be appropriate for
printing from mobile devices to low-cost printers that might not have a
full-page buffer and that generally print from top-to-bottom and
left-to-right with the paper in a portrait orientation. XHTML-Print is also
targeted at printing in environments where it is not feasible or desirable
to install a printer-specific driver and where some variability in the
formatting of the output is acceptable.
This document contains the XHTMLT-Print W3C Working Draft of 23 July 2003
and is a Last Call Working Draft for review by W3C members and other
interested parties. This document is in the Last Call review period, which
ends on 7 September 2003. Comments are to be sent to www-html-editor@w3.org
(archive). This specification is based, in large part, on a work by the same
name, XHTMLT-Print [XHTMLPRINT] from the Printer Working Group (PWG), a
program of the IEEE Industry Standard and Technology Organization. The PWG
specification has been submitted to the W3C Recommendation Track with the
agreement that it will revert to the PWG if a Candidate Recommendation has
not been produced by 06 May 2005.
Best wishes,
Steven Pemberton
Chair, HTML WG
