The XSL workflow
A 2.0 XSL processor is required to perform the transformation of the TEI manuscript. It has been successfully used with Saxon-HE 9.7.0.21J, found at sourceforge.
This workflow is used to convert the TEI source both to LaTeX and HTML versions.
LaTeX
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.
Command line switches
Four command line switches are available
Document structure (required)
This switch is required and tells if the document structure contains parts or not.
Use value 1
if there are parts.
parts=1
Use value 0
if there are no parts.
parts=0
Frontmatter (optional)
Toggles the creation and inclusion of a frontmatter, which is
generated from the TEI header. Default: false
. To enable it, use
frontmatter=1
List of contributors (optional)
Toggles the creation and inclusion of a List of Contributors (mainly
used in edited books). It is optional set to false
by default.
Enable it by adding
contributors=1
to the command line.
Verbosity (optional)
Selects the amount of output messages during runtime. Possible values are 0
, 1
, 2
. Example:
verbosity=1
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.
HTML
The HTML conversion is as of March 2018 still incomplete.
Command line switches
Up until now, only the the optional verbosity
switch is available.
Example file
The example file, available in eoa-publication-model can be used to check the conversion of all available commands.
`java -jar …/saxon9.jar -t -s:…/eoa-publication-model/examples/exampleTEI.xml -xsl:…/EOASkripts/tei2html.xsl`
The script will create a directory structure similar to the one on the publication platform. To enjoy the webdesign, a directory containing stylesheets, javascript and images is necessary. A version of this can be downloaded from https://oc.rz-berlin.mpg.de/owncloud/index.php/s/EEfZycDLCHjwwCF.
