A ruby is a commonly used name for an annotation or pronunciation guide to a string of text. The string of text annotated with a ruby is referred to as the base.

Valid objects within the RUBY object are:

• RB
• RT

The RB object is optional and specifies the base text for the RUBY. Text not contained within the ruby text object, RT, is assumed to be a part of the base.

NOTE: Both start and end tags are required.

The following sample outlines the implementation of the RUBY object. The sample specifies one string of text as the base, and a second string of text as the ruby.

<RUBY>
   <RB>Base Text
  <RT>Ruby Text
</RUBY>
