This is the optional preamble (an untitled section body). Useful for writing simple sectionless documents consisting only of a preamble.

The abstract, preface, appendix, bibliography, glossary and index section titles are significant (specialsections).

Abstract

The optional abstract (one or more paragraphs) goes here.

This document is an AsciiDoc article skeleton containing briefly annotated element placeholders plus a couple of example index entries and footnotes.

## 1. The First Section

Article sections start at level 1 and can be nested up to four levels deep. [1]

And now for something completely different: monkeys, lions and tigers (Bengal and Siberian) using the alternative syntax index entries. Note that multi-entry terms generate separate index entries.

Here are a couple of image examples: an example inline image followed by an example block image:

Figure 1. Tiger block image

Followed by an example table:

Table 1. An example table

Option | Description
