Whether you are an Institutional Repository, a Commercial Publisher, or Association Publisher, there is a possibility that you will need to convert your documents to NLM XML. NLM XML has become a standard for all types of organizations, STM and others, who are interested in maintaining their publications in XML.
DCL specializes in the conversion of documents to the PubMed Central Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) specification. The JATS specification includes NLM XML for Journals and manuscripts as well as the Bookshelf XML for books.
Highlights
DCL Composer: Enables a two-column rendering of manuscripts and journal articles from NLM XML
LinkOut Support: This add-on to DCL's conversion service enables publishers to link their PubMed-deposited materials back to their own websites, resulting in increased web traffic
NLM XML Training: DCL can provide training either on-site or via webinars to organizations desiring the ability to produce NLM XML in-house or to perform QA on NLM XML files
