Additional attributes: (Required attributes, if any, are bold)
Tertiary contains a third-level word or phrase in an IndexTerm. The text of a Tertiary term is less significant than the Primary and Secondary terms for sorting and display purposes.
DocBook does not define any additional levels. You cannot use IndexTerms to construct indexes with more than three levels without extending the DTD.
In IndexTerms, you can only have one primary, secondary, and tertiary term. If you want to index multiple tertiary terms for the same primary and secondary, you must repeat the primary and secondary in another IndexTerm. You cannot place several Tertiarys in the same primary.
Suppressed. This element provides data for processing but is not rendered in the primary flow of text.
