+<li><p> Solid background: <tt><background type="solid" color="..."
+style="..." /></tt> <br />The <i>color</i> attribute takes one of
+the standard values "white", "yellow", "pink", "orange", "blue", "green",
+or can specify a hexadecimal RGBA value in the format "#rrggbbaa". The
+<i>style</i> attribute takes one of the standard values "plain", "lined",
+"ruled", or "graph".</p>
+</li>
+<li><p> Bitmap background: <tt><background type="pixmap" domain="..."
+filename="..." /></tt> <br />
+The <i>domain</i> attribute takes one of the standard values "absolute",
+"attach", or "clone". A value of "absolute" indicates that the bitmap is
+found in the file specified by <i>filename</i>. The bitmap can be in any
+format recognized by the gdk-pixbuf library; this includes most of the
+common bitmap formats (JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, PCX, PNM, TIFF, ...).
+<br />A value
+of "attach" indicates that the bitmap is an attachment to the Xournal file.
+The bitmap is in PNG format, and resides in a file whose name is derived
+from that of the main Xournal file by appending to it a dot and the contents
+of the <i>filename</i> attribute. For example, if the Xournal file is in
+<tt>file.xoj</tt> and the <i>filename</i> attribute is <tt>"bg_1.png"</tt>
+then the bitmap file is <tt>file.xoj.bg_1.png</tt> (Xournal saves attached
+bitmaps sequentially in files ...bg_1.png, ...bg_2.png, etc.)
+<br />A value of "clone" indicates that the bitmap is identical to the
+background of a previous page of the journal; the <i>filename</i> attribute
+then specifies the page number, starting with 0 for the first page. For
+example, if a <i>filename</i> value of <tt>"1"</tt> indicates that the
+background bitmap is identical to that of the second page.

+<li><p> PDF background: <tt><background type="pdf" domain="..."
+filename="..." pageno="..." /></tt> or
+<tt><background type="pdf" pageno="..." /></tt>
+<br />The <i>domain</i> and <i>filename</i> attributes must be specified
+for the first page of the journal that uses a PDF background, and must
+be omitted subsequently for every other page that uses a PDF background.
+The <i>domain</i> attribute takes one of the standard values
+"absolute" and "attach"; the PDF document is to be found in the file
+specified by <i>filename</i> (if <i>domain</i> is "absolute"), or in the
+file whose name is obtained by appending a dot and the contents of the
+<i>filename</i> attribute to the name of the main Xournal file (if
+<i>domain</i> is "attach"). The <i>pageno</i> attribute specifies which
+page of the PDF file is used as background, starting with 1 for the first
+page of the PDF file.
