Re: [jats-list] Using JATS DTDs with Oxygen XML Editor

Hi Michael --

An observation in response to your note. It is safer to create customizations
of the JATS models by using the over-ride mechanism instead of editing any of
the JATS files. And, after you figure out how it works, faster than editing
the JATS files.

Please read about how to do this at:
    https://jats.nlm.nih.gov/publishing/tag-library/1.2/chapter/implementor.h
tml
and specifically the section at:
    https://jats.nlm.nih.gov/publishing/tag-library/1.2/chapter/imple-howtodt
ds.html

By using your own over-ride files you reduce the chances of your work being
stepped on accidentally and make moving your customization to new versions of
JATS much easier.

Also, as you are customizing JATS, you might find some of the information in
the JATS Compatibility Model useful. See:

ility-Model-v0-7.pdf

for the blue and green DTDS into a single folder (teal?) would work, but then
I realized that our slightly customized version of the blue DTD was made with
changes to some of the files they have in common. Nevertheless, thatbs an
idea I need to file away if I never need to convert between unmodified
versions of both DTDs.
