22.4. Processing expectations for the refdb DocBook bibliography output

refdb uses XML files to encode the information about the required references for a bibliography. The resulting bibliographic output can be used as an external entity in both XML and SGML DocBook files (the bibliography can be transformed to any other SGML or XML type with suitable stylesheets). The structures of these files will be briefly explained in this chapter.
