<p>Signatures are wrapped in the <gi>closer</gi> and <gi>signed</gi>
elements. The typical right-aligned signature block appears as
follows:</p>
<p>Signatures are wrapped in a <gi>signed</gi> element inside the document's
<gi>closer</gi> element. The <gi>closer</gi> element is rendered as
a right-aligned block, so no <att>rend</att> or <att>rendition</att>
attribute is needed to achieve right-alignment of the <gi>closer</gi>.
Every <gi>signed</gi> element must have at least one <gi>persName</gi>
element—even if the person does not have a <att>corresp</att> value in
the volume. Typically, the person names in FRUS signature blocks are set
in bold text in the print edition, so in FRUS TEI, use a <gi>hi</gi>
element with a <att>rend</att> attribute value of <ident>strong</ident>.
When a signatory's title appears beneath the name in italics, use
<gi>lb</gi> to break the lines and use <gi>hi</gi>
<att>rend</att>=<ident>italic</ident> to italicize the title.</p>
<p>The typical signature block containing a single person name and title is
encoded as follows:</p>
<egXML xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples">
<closer rend="right">
<signed>Tyler Dennett <lb/><hi rend="italic">Chief, Division of
Publications</hi>
<closer>
<signed>
<persName>
<hi rend="strong">Creighton W. Abrams</hi>
</persName>
<lb/>
<hi rend="italic">General, United States Army</hi>
<lb/>
<hi rend="italic">Acting Chief of Staff</hi>
</signed>
</closer>
</egXML>
<p>When a signature block contains multiple names, enclose them all in a
single <gi>signed</gi> element (not one per person), using a
<gi>list</gi> structure, with one <gi>item</gi> per person:</p>
<egXML xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples">
<closer>
<signed>
<list>
<item>
<persName>
<hi rend="strong">John M. Dunn</hi>
</persName>
<lb/>
<hi rend="italic">Acting Executive Director</hi>
<lb/>
<hi rend="italic">Council on International Economic
Policy</hi>
</item>
<item>
<persName>
<hi rend="strong">Brent Scowcroft</hi>
</persName>
<lb/>
<hi rend="italic">Assistant to the President for
National Security Affairs</hi>
</item>
</list>
</signed>
</closer>
</egXML>
