Introduction
River Valley have a XML complaint production tracking system known as `RVMS' which means `River Valley Management System'. It can import XML coversheets and bookin a new job. It can render the coversheet. So we request XML coversheets from our clients.
What is XML coversheet?
XML coversheet means, coversheets in XML format which are accompanied with the manuscript for typesetting. Metadata is tagged using XML elements. The XML file can sometimes be a well-formed XML or a DTD/XSD driven one.
Advantages of XML coversheets
XML coversheet poses lot of advantages.
- All meta informations are tagged properly.
- This can be easily generated from the manuscript submission systems without any re-keying.
- This can be used for booking in an article in any XML complaint production tracking system.
- The tagged informations can be extracted or re-used in the further stages of production.
- Since the original data is used, typos can be avoided and eliminates the further checking.
- Using XSLT, these coversheets can be rendered.
