| Research Abstract |
(1) An electronic publishing system for The Journal of Chemical Software (JCS) was developed. With this system, processes to prepare HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) and PDF (Portable Document Format) files to distribute through the Internet and to create the printed issues were integrated.
(2) The manuscript which was received from an author by electronic medium such as floppy disk or e-mail is converted to the SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language) document with authoring software (Xsoft InContext2) for SGML. DTD (Document Type Definition) for academic journals was provided from NACSIS (National Center for Science Information Systems) and modified for JCS.
(3) The SGML document is then converted to HTML file for distribution through the Internet and LaTeX source file to make printed issue with programs almost automatically. The program for conversion from SGML to HTML and from SGML to LaTeX was written in Microsoft Visual Basic.
(4) By applying this system, the operations for publishing with both electronic and printed media were simplified and the quality of printing was greatly improved.
