PRISM XML
PRISM (Publishing Requirements for Industry Standard Metadata) is an XML DTD for describing magazine article content to enable automated delivery to aggregators and other companies. Having a standardized format describing magazine article content reduces the costs and time associated with aggregating content, while the use of PRISM and XML provides greater capabilities for magazine and media publishers.
Don't Forget About Accessibility!
Accessibility is an approach to content and design that makes information available in alternative formats for people with vision impairment. DCL creates Section 508-compliant PDFs from both legacy PDF and image files. DCL’s expertise in analyzing content, providing compliance audits, and remediating assures you of a smooth process that makes content accessible to all.
DCL does a terrific job wrangling our difficult-to-standardize publication into a usable XML format for upload into a searchable database used across our enterprise.The resulting database has become "mission critical" for our organization, so we are glad we can count on DCL for quality and timeliness.
