Abstract
In one example, a document rendering device may create a document from a document tree by determining whether a style property of a source node of the document tree may be applied to a target node of that document tree. The document rendering device may store a document tree having multiple nodes describing a document having component arranged hierarchically in a parent-child relationship. The document rendering device may identify a styling permission describing whether a target node representing a child component of the document tree permits application of a style property to the target node. The document rendering device may execute an inheritance determination for the target node based on the styling permission to determine whether the target node inherits the style property from a source node representing a parent component. The document rendering device may render the target node based on the inheritance determination to create a document component of the document.
