Subject: [jats-list] Markup for linguistics (glossed text) From: Michael Boudreau <mboudreau@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 19 Nov 2013 21:17:17 +0000 |
Greetings, Has anyone tackled the problem of marking up textual illustrations that require multiple points of vertical alignment--the sort of thing for which you9d set tab stops on a typewriter or word processor? I9m working on a linguistics journal that has lots of glossed text illustrations that are typeset like the items labeled (3) and (4) on this page image: http://mss.uchicago.edu:81/mrb/linguistics.png We9re using the NLM Journal Publishing 3.0 DTD, and I9m at a loss for a markup solution that seems semantically reasonable and illustrates the relationships between the chunks of text that the typesetting makes obvious. I9ve considered table markup, but I don9t want to break a single sentence or other unit of meaning into multiple table cells across a row. When I consider how our online host would convert XML into HTML, I see only the same bad option. Am I overlooking something obvious? -- Michael R.
