Subject: [jats-list] How/When do you produce a JATS-XML version of you publication within your publication workflow From: Einbrodt Matthias <Matthias.Einbrodt@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2012 11:04:05 +0000 |
Hello, my name is Matthias Einbrodt and I work for a relatively small University Library in Bozen-Bolzano. We are currently planning to support a research institution in our region to setup and publish an OA online journal. We will use the Open Journal System for this task. What emerged so far from our first analysis is that we will be most probably in charge of producing/layouting an (X)Html and PDF version of each article. Our idea is that we want to start from an XML based representation (using JATS or TEI) of the article and apply XSLT / XSL:FO transformations to get the X(Html) and PDF representations. The most interesting question to us, however, is how to produce the XML itself. We came up with the following possibilities: (1) We burden the author with the task. Although it seems as if there has been some development regarding user-friendly WYSIWYG approaches to XML-Editing (e.g. Microsoft Word Article Authoring Add-In) we assume that the learning curve is still to high for the authors to accept such an approach (2) Completely re-create an XML representation of the article based upon the manuscript the authors send to us using: (2.1.) XML authoring tools (e.g. Oxygen XML Author or the already mentioned Microsoft Word Article Authoring Add-In). (2.2.) XML guessers (e.g. Lemon8) that produce an XML representation of the article automatically. The output of these tools is then checked and corrected (if necessary) using the tools mentioned in 2.1. (3) Outsourcing the whole process to a 3rd party provider. My question(s) are now: (a) Are there other approaches to this task? (b) What are your approaches to the task of producing JATS-XML and what are your experiences regarding the dimensions quality and cost of the results as well as the duration of the approach? Hoping for an interesting exchange. Best regards, Matthias Einbrodt
