To include an inline figure in the middle of a paragraph:
Use the inlinemediaobject element.
Inside this element, place an imageobject to specify the image. The
format of this element is described in Section 10.1, “Formal and informal figures”.
Include a textobject element with
text that will appear in situations where the image
cannot be displayed, such as browsers for the
visually impaired.
Here is an example:
Use this icon
to create a circle by specifying its diameter.
And here is the source for this paragraph:
<para>
Use this icon
<inlinemediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="circle-2.jpg"/>
</imageobject>
<textobject><phrase>Icon for circle by diameter</phrase>
</textobject>
</inlinemediaobject>
to create a circle by specifying its diameter.
</para>
