About Public DTDs
There are a multitude of public domain standards to choose from. These standards are not only free; they’re also widely used, which means that there are lots of tools available to make using these DTDs easier. Their widespread use also makes it possible to transfer data between your own projects or even among other organizations.
Public DTDs include S1000D, DITA, DocBook, the NLM journal publishing DTD, and TEI/TEI Lite.
