Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the Inter-
national Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide
standardization. National bodies that are members of IS0 or IEC participate in the
development of International Standards through technical committees established
by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity.
IS0 and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other
international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with
IS0 and IEC, also take part in the work.
In the field of information technology, IS0 and IEC have established a joint
technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the
joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication
as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national
bodies casting a vote.
Amendment 1 to International Standard ISO/IEC 8632-4:1992 was prepared by
Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Sub-
committee 24, Computer graphics and image processing.

“9 Encoding rules, proforma, and Model Profile
9.1 General principles
9.1.1 Encodings
Precisions are defined consistently with the principles of the encodings, not necessarily for inter-encoding
translation. Where both considerations might apply, compatibility with the principles of the encoding
are considered first and inter-encoding translation second.

9.1.2 Metafile defaults
Clause 7 addresses all elements which have default values. While no profile can change these values,
an equivalent effect may be achieved by use of the METAFILE DEFAULTS REPLACEMENT element.
Profiles may require that a metafile contain a METAFILE DEFAULTS REPLACEMENT element with
well-defined content.
9.2 Profile Proforma tables (PPF)
The Profile Proforma is contained in table 1 and table 2. These tables, when completed by the author
of the profile. contain the normative specifications of the profile.
A /
The PPF tables
have 3 columns:
- The first identifies the element to be addressed.
- The second is the template for the profile writer to complete.
- The third is the completed specification for the Model Profile.
Each element to be addressed comprises a “row” of the table.
The first column of each row contains:
1) A unique identifier for that row, T.n.m, indicating that this is row “m” of table “n”. For
example, row T. 1.2 is the second row of table 1 (for the REAL PRECISION element).
2) The name of the element for that row, for example, REAL PRECISION.
3) The lowest metafile version (vl , v2, or v3) for which each element is defined.
4) References to other sections of this clause, for add
