PubMed XML Conversion

We have been closely working with prestigious Medical Associations and Publishers to help digitizing & delivering their content to end-users through various eReaders and platforms such as the PubMed Central and PMC, and also help them in bringing down their production costs reasonably.

We accept all source formats (PDF, Word, InDesign, Quark, Print, etc.) and convert them to PubMed Standard DTD XML. Along with the conversion, we also provide free uploading service to our customers’ PubMed FTP.

With customers from across the globe, we have developed an expertise in handling complex content in a variety of Non-Latin languages too (including Arabic).

Our Quality Assurance

We follow the PubMed Central Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) specification using the latest DTD “JATS-journalpublishing1.dtd”.

We also use PMC style checker (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/tools/stylechecker/) for validation of final XML files before they are finally sent to the customer. The Quality Control process also involves matching the converted XML files with the supplied source to ensure the text quality.

DTBook XML Conversion

Digital Accessible Information System (DAISY) is a technical standard for digital audio books, periodicals, and computerized text. DAISY is developed to be a complete audio substitute for print material and is specifically designed for use by people with “print disabilities,” including blindness, impaired vision, and dyslexia. NIMAS (National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard) is a technical standard used by publishers to produce source files (in XML) that may be used to develop multiple specialized formats (such as Braille, DAISY talking books, Large prints or HTML) for readers with print disabilities.

Developed by the DAISY Consortium as an accessible file format similar to HTML, with special regard to the requirements of the visually impaired, DAISY Digital Talking Book or DAISY XML is simply stated as DTBook which is an XML based document file format used in EPUB 2.0 and in DAISY Digital Talking Book. DigiTrans Media follows the DTBook-2005-3.dtd, the latest version in our DTBook DTD conversion.

Our experts convert source content from any format into XML-NIMAS files in compliance with the original document and convert the same to DTBooks conforming to DAISY Consortium Standards. The end product can be read and listened in multiple devices such as mobile phones, multimedia devices, PC with CD drives etc.
