Author Names

The eXtyles Advanced Process for Author Processing will parse paragraphs with author names into their constituent elements (surname, given names, initials, prefixes, and suffixes) as well as identifying organizational authors. eXtyles can also distinguish between various types of contributors (e.g. authors and editors) depending on context in the document.

The author list must be reviewed after running Author Processing to ensure that the various elements have been correctly identified. Certain situations can cause problems for Author Processing in the standard eXtyles configuration: names in non-Western order (i.e., Surname Given-Names); multi-word surnames separated by spaces; unusual or non-standard degree names.

Errors in Author Processing can be corrected by careful hand tagging.

Please be aware that degree names must be explicitly listed in an eXtyles data file. If you find that a degree is not shaded with the correct color, then it’s likely that it is not listed in the eXtyles data file and instead eXtyles misapplied the au_orgname character style. When this happens, please fix the character style manually and report the missing degree to eXtyles-support@inera.com.

Introductory text in an author paragraph, such as "By" or "Edited by", must also be styled as au_prefix.

Author Affiliations

Author affiliations can be edited as one affiliation per paragraph, or as multiple affiliations in a single paragraph.

In the "one affiliation per paragraph" style, when superscript letters, numbers, or symbols are used to link affiliations to authors, the linking character must be at the start of the affiliation paragraph.

The following author list and affiliations will parse correctly:

Daniel Ruzek,1 Patrik Kilian,2 Martin Tulsty,3 and Ivan Gelbic4

1Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Branisovska 31, CZ-37005 Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic

2Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and Faculty of Science, University of South Bohemia, Branisovska 31, CZ- 37005 Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic

3Pierre de Coubertin High School, Frantisek Krizik Sq. 860, CZ-39030 Tabor, Czech Republic

4Institute of Entomology, Biology Centre of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Branisovska 31, CZ-37005 Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic

This style makes good use of space if multiple authors share affiliations. The example yields the following XML:
