Legacy Facsimile Markup
This page includes some examples of different approaches for facsimile (image-based) markup.
Past TEI Recommendations: Draft Recommendations for TEI Digital Facsimiles
http://users.ox.ac.uk/~lou/wip/digfax.html
This document, authored by Richard Gartner and Lou Burnard and last updated in 2001, outlines ways to use TEI to represent three types of digital objects:
- complete digital transcriptions of the content of manuscript or print originals (possibly including illustrations as well as text)
- collections of digitized page images (digital facsimiles) intended for use as surrogates for complete manuscript or print originals
- digital objects (digital editions) combining both page facsimiles and transcriptions, possibly also including layers of editorial annotation
The authors attempt to address these areas of concern:
- the need to distinguish images of a manuscript or print source from images located within it;
- the need to support multiple formats of a single image;
- the need to associate metadata at different levels (e.g. collection level, item level);
- the need to associate transcription and facsimile in a standard way;
- the need to define practices which can be used equally well in both SGML and XML environments;
- the desire to avoid special purpose rules which assume nonstandard or ad hoc processing rules.
