# DocBook XSL Stylesheets User Reference: PIs

This is generated reference documentation for all user-specifiable processing instructions in the DocBook XSL stylesheets.

### Note

You add these PIs at particular points in a document to cause specific “exceptions” to formatting/output behavior. To make global changes in formatting/output behavior across an entire document, it’s better to do it by setting an appropriate stylesheet parameter (if there is one).
