The move to XML workflows has become vital for publishers worldwide. They are needed to control costs and for the flexibility to use content for multiple purposes. Our technical department is highly experienced in working with an array of standard applications that include InDesign, 3B2, Latex, Frame Maker, and QuarkXPress, assimilating these within the XML-based production processes.

Through our proprietary iFirst XML process, we offer the latest features of XML, HTML, and SGML, including XML entry of scientific text (equations, tables, chemical structures) according to the Document Type Definition (DTD) supplied by our clients.

Our team is thoroughly proficient in both XML DTD and Schema to analyze and also obtain DTDs manually. We have the capability to create our own DTDs.
