Used for preformatted text, such as computer code, in which white space (such as tabs, line feeds, and spaces) should be preserved
This element’s content typically is displayed or printed in a monofont to preserve character alignment.
Conversion Note: The position attribute may be used to indicate whether this element must be anchored at its exact location within the text or whether it may float, for example, to the top of the next page, next column, to the end of a logical file, or within a separate window. For the typical <preformat> element, the “float or anchor” decision will be governed by the size of the object. For example, short code fragments are typically anchored whereas full programs are typically placed elsewhere such as in a separate window or at the end of a book (or book component).

<p>Each 3D Domain identified in an MMDB record is
assigned a unique integer identifier that is
appended to the Accession number of the chain to
which it belongs (e.g., 1B8G A 2). This new
Accession number becomes its identifier in Entrez
3D Domains. New 3D Domain identifiers are assigned
whenever a new MMDB-ID is assigned.</p>
