All L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X&#XA0;2&#X454; declarations and environments for changing type style
are recognized. Aspect is rather like L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X&#XA0;2&#X454; output, but there is
no guarantee.</P><P>As HTML does not provide the same variety of type styles as
L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X, some type style get rendered by using colors. For instance,
the slanted shape yields maroon italics.

Hence, the following source
&#X201C;<CODE>{\slshape slanted shape} {\scshape small caps shape}</CODE>&#X201D; yields:
&#X201C;<FONT COLOR=maroon><I>slanted shape</I></FONT> <SPAN STYLE="font-variant:small-caps">small caps shape</SPAN>&#X201D;

Here is how H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A implements text-style declarations by default:

Text-style commands also exists, they are defined as
<CODE>\mbox{\</CODE><I>decl</I>&#X2026;<CODE>}</CODE>. For instance,
<CODE>\texttt</CODE> is defined as a command with one argument whose body is
<CODE>\mbox{\ttfamily#1}</CODE>.
Finally, the <CODE>\emph</CODE> command for emphasized text also exists.</P><P>As in L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X, type styles consists in three components:
<EM>shape</EM>, <EM>series</EM> and <EM>family</EM>.
However this distinction does not exist in HTML: one specifies a
type style and that&#X2019;s all.
H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A implements the three components by making one declaration to
cancel the effect of other declarations of the same kind.

For instance consider the following source, that exhibits shape changes:
</P><PRE CLASS="verbatim">{\itshape italic shape \slshape slanted shape
\scshape small caps shape \upshape upright shape}
</PRE><P>Then, in the rendering below, &#X201C;small caps shape&#X201D; apears in small caps shape
only and not in italics:
</P><BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="quote"><HR NOSHADE SIZE=1 ALIGN=center>
<I>italic shape <FONT COLOR=maroon>slanted shape
</FONT></I><SPAN STYLE="font-variant:small-caps">small caps shape </SPAN>upright shape
<HR NOSHADE SIZE=1 ALIGN=center></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Old style declarations are also recognized, they translate to
text-level elements. However, no elements are canceled when using
old style declaration. Thus, the source
&#X201C;<CODE>{\sl\sc slanted and small caps}</CODE>&#X201D; yields maroon &#X201C;slanted&#X201D; small caps
: &#X201C;<FONT COLOR=maroon><I><SPAN STYLE="font-variant:small-caps">slanted and small caps</SPAN></I></FONT>&#X201D;.
Users need probably not worry about this. However this has an
important practical consequence: to change the default rendering of
type styles, one should redefine old style declaration in order to
benefit from the cancelation mechanism. See
section&#XA0;<A HREF="manual020.html#customize-style">10.2</A> for a more thorough description.</P><H3 CLASS="subsection"><A NAME="toc93"></A><A NAME="htoc120">B.15.2</A>&#XA0;&#XA0;Changing the Type Size</H3><P>
All declarations, from <CODE>\tiny</CODE> to <CODE>\Huge</CODE> are recognized.
Output is not satisfactory inside headers elements
generated by sectioning commands.</P><H3 CLASS="subsection"><A NAME="toc94"></A><A NAME="htoc121">B.15.3</A>&#XA0;&#XA0;Special Symbols</H3><P>The <CODE>\symbol{</CODE><I>num</I><CODE>}</CODE> outputs character number <I>num</I>
(decimal) from the Unicode character set.
This departs from L<sup>A</sup>T<sub>E</sub>X, which output symbol number <I>num</I> in
the current font.</P><HR>
