Structuring
Turn loose manuscripts into clean, structured, reusable content.
We convert unstructured manuscripts into consistently structured content, the foundation for single-source, multi-channel publishing. Structural tagging applied at this stage means every downstream format, from print PDF to accessible ePub3, is generated from a single validated source rather than from separate files maintained in parallel.
Pain points we solve
- Inconsistent document structure across a title or series
- Content that cannot be reused across print and digital channels
How it works
- 1Analyse source document
- 2Apply structural model
- 3Validate against schema
- 4Hand off to typesetting or XML workflow
Frequently asked questions
What does content structuring mean in a publishing context?
Content structuring means tagging a manuscript with a consistent hierarchy (chapters, headings, body text, captions, tables) so that one source file can drive print layout, accessible ePub3, and structured XML without re-keying or reformatting.
When in the production timeline does structuring happen?
Structuring happens after the final editorial pass and before typesetting or XML conversion. Doing it at this stage prevents costly rework later, because every downstream tool relies on the same consistent structure.
Can you structure an existing back catalogue?
Yes. We can analyse and restructure legacy files, including Word documents, PDFs, and InDesign exports, to bring them into a consistent, reusable format.
