Basically, yes. Asciidoc is structural markup, not presentation markup. In general roles are not pre-defined, but a few for the specific examples shown in the user guide http://asciidoc.org/userguide.html#X51 are supported by the default css. This support may have been a bad idea in retrospect if it gives the idea that presentation is part of Asciidoc, but its there now. > Are there > examples of applying roles to different types of text and blocks which I > could refer to? FAQ #3 is general, and FAQ #62 gives an example of using a role to set font in XSL. The user guide points to http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/UsingCSS.html for CSS.
