After receiving your files for journal publishing, we undertake the following steps:
All the manuscripts are reviewed by our team of copy editors to make sure that they comply with a journal style guide as well as publisher-specific guidelines for grammar, punctuation, and style. Our copy editors are proficient in a variety of style guides, including MLA, APA (American Psychological Association), CMoS (Chicago Manual of Style), AMA (American Medical Association), etc.
We implement XML coding as per journal DTD specification to deliver the output XML for page composition.
Our experts code the manuscript to enable the typesetting process. Further, the data is paginated, proofread, cross-checked, and incorporated.
We review and revise the coded data as per the client’s recommendations for content or style. Our Quality Assurance (QA) team cross-checks the revised file for accuracy. We mark all the revisions on the page proofs, which are later scanned and sent to clients in PDFs.
Our experts, index and typeset the manuscript to be sent to the client for review and confirmation.
Once the page proofs are approved and finalized, we create a print-ready PDF and send it to the client for approval.
We implement the XML conversion process in tune with the Docbook DTD specification, using the exported XML file from InDesign. The encoded version is checked for errors, which are rectified to finally validate the XML file.
We export the EPUB file from InDesign by using XML and validate it for various applications and devices like Amazon Kindle, B&N Nook, Apple iPad, Google, etc.). The final quality analysis is performed to ensure style and content accuracy.
