Author Processing
- Jenny Seifert (Unlicensed)
Author Processing automatically identifies and tags all sub-elements in the paragraph in your document that contains the author name(s), if present. This tagging is used primarily for the production of XML directly from eXtyles. It can also be used to help compositors automatically identify author names that will be used in constructing running heads.
Be sure that you have completed copy editing of the manuscript before you run this process. Author Processing is designed to tag copy edited elements, not to automate copy editing.
When you have completed copy editing, select eXtyles > Advanced Processing > Author Processing. The author paragraph(s) will be tagged and highlighted.
All components of the author line, except for punctuation and connecting words, are color coded. In addition, the author name components are styled with Word character styles such as au_fname or au_surname.
Color coding is provided for proofing purposes. If a name is miscoded by the automatic processing, it may be correctly coded by selecting the character styles lists in the following table from the Word Styles menu. The following table shows the color coding and character style applied to each part of an author name.
Part | Character Style |
|---|---|
First Name | au_fname |
Surname | au_surname |
Footnote link | cite_fn |
Author prefix | au_prefix |
