Production software for scholarly journals that converts DOCX manuscripts into structured JATS, linked references, figures, typeset PDFs, and validated deposit packages.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-28 issue.

Field notes

The workflow begins with an accepted DOCX and preserves manuscript structure while producing JATS, linked citations, figures, and a typeset PDF from the reviewed record. The page reports a fifteen-article issue passing the National Library of Medicine’s PMC checker with zero errors and 653 cross-references resolved. Web, OJS, and HTTP API routes feed the same production core, with blockers shown to operators rather than silently cleared.
