XML schema error for tts:extent usage

TTML Enthusiasts-

 

I believe there is an error in the TTML XML schema regarding the use of
tts:extent.

 

TTML 1.0 says in the definition of extent that it is permitted on both
<region> and <tt> elements:

http://www.w3.org/TR/ttaf1-dfxp/#style-attribute-extent 

 

However, the schema both forbids it on <tt>, and allows it on <body>:

http://www.w3.org/TR/ttaf1-dfxp/#dfxp-schema-xsd 

 

Since the prose takes precedence, I believe the schema should be corrected
and brought into conformance.

 

DECE (Ultraviolet) CFF-TT is derived from SMPTE-TT, which extends TTML.
CFF-TT *requires* tts:extent on <tt> so this schema error prevents
validating all instance documents. For more information on CFF-TT, see the
Common File Format and Media Formats Specification published here:

Since this seems straight forward and obvious, I hope the WG will be able to
promptly act on this and correct the published schema.

 

Thank you.
