Vesta

Synopsis

Vesta, a "desktop Roma" application, "provides a simple desktop app which lets you run conversions on TEI files. Specifically, it understands what to do with ODD files, and can generate schemas and documentation; but more generally it can process simple TEI XML files and make HTML, LaTeX, FO and Word 2007 .docx output. It does this using different profiles, which can be added to locally."

How to download or buy

"A MacOS version can be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=106328&package_id=298013 and Debian/Ubuntu users can pick up a "tei-vesta" package by adding the right APT source to their local setup (see http://tei.oucs.ox.ac.uk/teideb/)

"If there is someone who can make nice Windows packages for me, I'd welcome help; Vesta is a fairly simple Java application.

"The source is all available on Sourceforge, of course. It depends on my TEI XSL stylesheets (converted for XSLT 2.0)."
