The itemref element linear attribute indicates whether referenced item is considered primary (yes) or auxiliary (no) in the spine. This attribute may be used to enable Reading Systems to distinguish presentation of body content from supplementary content which might be, for example, presented in a popup window or omitted from an aural rendition.
