Using the TEI for Editing ISO documents

Basic principles

Most of the necessary documentation for using the giudelines in specific contexts can be found under: [1].

Looking between the lines at [2], one can also get advice as to how to integrate a TEI component within a third party DTD or schema.


Terms and definition

The term and difinition section should be represented as a list of items:

               <head>Terms and definitions</head>
               <list type="termlist">
                   <item/>
               </list>

Each item should have the following structure:

                   <item xml:id="stateOfTheArt" n="3.13">
                       <term>state of the art</term>
                       <gloss>developed stage of technical capability at a given time as regards
                           products, processes and services, based on the relevant consolidated
                           findings of science, technology and experience</gloss>
                       <ref>ISO/IEC Guide 2:2004, definition 1.4</ref>
                   </item>


Abbreviation should be represented by means of an following the corresponding <term> Additional terms for the same concepts should be represented as <term>'s following the main entry.

Using TEI modules in ISO specification (and others...)

Feature structures

The relaxNg schema for representing feature structures is available under [3].

This can be generated directly by means of the following ODD declaration:

  <schemaSpec ident="testjustfs" start="">
    <moduleRef key="tei"/>
    <moduleRef key="iso-fs"/>
  </schemaSpec>
