```
public interface Sink
extends LogEnabled
```
A Sink consumes Doxia events to produce a resultant output format (eg Docbook, PDF, XHTML...).
Doxia allows you to transform any supported input document format (ie for which a Parser exists) into any supported output document format (ie for which a Sink exists).

A parser is responsible for reading an input document and emitting a sequence of Doxia events which can then be consumed by a Doxia Sink. Thus, you can parse any front- end format (eg APT, FML, Xdoc, ...) and have them all contribute to a final XHTML version of a web site. All documents being parsed result in a stream of Doxia events (eg paragraph, bold, italic, text,...), which are then fed into a XHTML Sink to produce a set of XHTML pages.

A Sink is ultimately responsible for the final format and structure of the output document. For example, you can take a collection of APT documents, let a Parser emit a series of Doxia events and have that be fed into a Sink to produce a single PDF, a book, a site, or a Word document. The Sink is fully responsible for the final output.

You can easily integrate any custom (XML, Wiki,...) format by creating a Doxia Parser which reads your input document and produces a proper sequence of Doxia events. Those can then be fed into an arbitrary Sink to produce any desired final output.

Note: All implemented sink should use UTF-8 as encoding.

- Method Detail
  - head
```
void head()
```
    Starts the head element.
    
    See Also:
    head(SinkEventAttributes)
  - head
```
void head(SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Starts the head element.
    This contains information about the current document, (eg its title) that is not considered document content. The head element is optional but if it exists, it has to be unique within a sequence of Sink events that produces one output document, and it has to come before the body(SinkEventAttributes) element.
    
    The canonical sequence of events for the head element is:
```
   sink.head();

   sink.title();
   sink.text( "Title" );
   sink.title_();

   sink.author();
   sink.text( "Author" );
   sink.author_();

   sink.date();
   sink.text( "Date" );
   sink.date_();

   sink.head_();
 
```
    but none of the enclosed events is required. However, if they exist they have to occur in the order shown, and the title() and date() events have to be unique (author() events may occur any number of times).
    
    Supported attributes are:
    
    PROFILE, LANG.
    Parameters:
    attributes - A set of SinkEventAttributes, may be null.
    Since:
    
    1.1
  - head_

void head_()
```
    Ends the head element.

void title(SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Starts the title element. This is used to identify the document.
    Supported attributes are the base attributes.
    
    Parameters:
    attributes - A set of SinkEventAttributes, may be null.

    See Also:
    date(SinkEventAttributes)

```
void date(SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Starts the date element. This is used to identify the date of the document: there is no strict definition if it is creation date or last modification date, which are the 2 classical semantics. There is no formal formatting requirements either.
    The date is recommended (but it is not a requirement) to be aligned to the ISO-8601 standard, i.e.:
```
YYYY-MM-DD
```
    where
    - YYYY is the year in the Gregorian calendar,
    - MM is the month of the year between 01 (January) and 12 (December),
    - and DD is the day of the month between 01 and 31.

```
void section(int level,
           SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Start a new section at the given level.
    Sections with higher level have to be entirely contained within sections of lower level.
    
    Supported attributes are the base attributes.
    
    Parameters:
    level - the section level.
    attributes - A set of SinkEventAttributes, may be null.
    Since:
    
    1.1
  - section_
```
void section_(int level)
```
    Ends a section at the given level.
    
    Parameters:
    level - the section level.
    Since:
    
    1.1
  - sectionTitle
```
void sectionTitle(int level,
                SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Start a new section title at the given level.
    This element is optional, but if it exists, it has to be contained, and be the first element, within a corresponding section element of the same level.
    
    NOTE: It is strongly recommended not to make section titles implicit anchors. Neither Parsers nor Sinks should insert any content that is not explicitly present in the original source document, as this would lead to undefined behaviour for multi-format processing chains. However, while Parsers must never emit anchors for section titles, some specialized Sinks may implement such a feature if the resulting output documents are not going to be further processed (and this is properly documented).
    
    Supported attributes are the base attributes plus ALIGN.

```
void figure(SinkEventAttributes attributes)
```
    Starts a basic image embedding element.
    The canonical sequence of events for the figure element is:

    NOTE also that the figureGraphics() event does not have to be embedded inside figure(), in particular for in-line images the figureGraphics() should be used stand-alone (in HTML language, figureGraphics() produces a <img> tag, while figure() opens a paragraph- or <div>- like environment).

```
    where the tableCaption element is optional.
