TIES—Production Processes and Systems
DAISY publishing houses have their production processes built around republishing printed books using specialized DAISY specifications. The EPUB 3 specification presents a great opportunity to make processes more economical by replacing existing republishing-based processes with conversion-based processes that convert digital copies obtained from publishers into accessible format.
Objective
The objective of the Production Processes and Systems sub-group of the TIES project is to identify and innovate authoring best practices and production systems for upgrading existing DAISY republishing systems to the more efficient and economical EPUB 3 based production systems. At the same time the group will ensure that the best practices and specifications are able to fulfill the existing needs of DAISY Consortium members.
