Hi Sam,
The wording is "keyword for the type of mark", not an arbitrary string to be used as a mark. Here keyword means a name of a mark from the list of marks supported by the stylesheet. In HTML output, only three kinds of marks are supported, "disc", "circle", "square". More are supported in FO output. You can customize the set of supported mark names in FO by customizing the template named "itemizedlist.label.markup" in fo/lists.xsl. See:

It appears that override is ignored:

http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/listitem.html
Override specifies the keyword for the type of mark to be used on this
ListItem instead of the mark currently in use for the list.

so I expected
<itemizedlist>
<listitem override="B">...
<listitem override="A">...
<listitem override="Z">...
</itemizedlist>

to be rendered

~ B. ...
~ A. ...
~ Z. ...

this expectation is reinforced by
http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/itemizedlist.html

alas, I do not observe this, I see the standard bullets instead.

So, how do I specify the item labels in my lists?
