Switch branches/tags

Name already in use

A tag already exists with the provided branch name. Many Git commands accept both tag and branch names, so creating this branch may cause unexpected behavior. Are you sure you want to create this branch?

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.
