The XSL workflow

A 2.0 XSL processor is required to perform the transformation of the TEI manuscript to LaTeX files. It has been successfully used with Saxon-HE 9.7.0.21J, found at sourceforge.

There are two files to choose from, depending on whether the highest element of a publication is part (tei2eoatex-parts.xsl) or chapter (tei2eoatex-noparts.xsl). Both scripts then import tei2eoatex-common.xsl which contains the rest of the templates.

There is command line parameter available which toggles the creation and inclusion of a List of Contributors (mainly used in edited books). It is set to false by default. Enable it by adding

 contributors=1

to the command line.

Output

The transformation will create a number of files that closely resembles the structure in the classic EOATeX way. There is one main file that links to the separate chapter files which are located in a directory texfiles.

Working with the LaTeX files

The LaTeX files are considered temporary files to create a PDF version of the TEI text. All changes to the contents and structure of the text should be made in the master TEI file. However, some elements need to be fixed at the LaTeX level, e.g. the placement and size of images, line and page breaks or hyphenation.
