Typesetting

Making your content publish-ready

Get in Touch

 We understand the importance of page composition with clean layouts in order to  deliver a clear view to the reader. We have well-trained and experienced typesetters for all forms of conventional typesetting, be it less complex pagination levels or complex design projects. Keeping your book’s theme and genre in mind, we convert your manuscripts into print-ready formats.

Hurix follows unique working methods to meet the composition requirements of the clients and our methods vary across the clientele, based on their specific requirements. We will help you achieve the optimum page design and provide the best reading experience to your audience.

Our Capabilities

XML-first Workflow

We offer both XML and Non-XML workflows. An XML-first workflow, a platform-independent and intraoperative procedure, involves 

  • Editing the Word manuscript
  • Converting the edited document to XML
  • Online editing in XML
  • Feeding input validated XML to pagination software
  • Proofreading PDF
  • Incorporating corrections in XML
  • Publishing the final XML files for print, eBooks, websites, apps, and so on. 

We ensure that all deliverables are created and passed through the editing and production cycle as one XML file. It is easy to incorporate corrections at any point in XML, and these corrections reflect in the PDF. 

The content is published online before it is available in print, eliminating the need for re-creating content across different platforms, and it can be easily adapted to any publishing format. 

Auto Styling with Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tool

Our AI tool was developed for auto styling the word files and converting them into validated XML, which is fed as an input to our automated page composition software.

Our page composition process involves Adobe InDesign and conversions using InDesign (XML/Tagged Text/Word), 3B2 (ASCII & XML), and TeX/LaTeX (XML).  

We design and format print content for publishers using various composition platforms such as 3B2, InDesign, QuarkXPress, Latex etc. We provide automated solutions for client requirements with quick turnaround times and good quality. 

Our highly systematic QC processes are designed to ensure that customer specifications are met in all aspects. We also offer template creation/design services which include-

  • Setting up the page layout (recto/verso)
  • Creating master pages complete with headers and footers
  • Writing scripts to define every element given in the project specifications 
  • Creating styles for formatting the content

We also develop templates for each kind of books and journals, both XML workflow (Tag based) and non-XML workflow (Word style based).

Proof PDF Development

We use the DPS (Directory Publishing System) tool to paginate and create Proof PDF.

With this software, we ensure that the placement of tables, figures, base alignment, etc., are accurate. 

The XML-validated files are extracted from the server and DPS automatically picks the template and images from the server, the flow of the content, generates the application files (3B2 file or InDesign file) and creates the PDF for proofing.

The tool also takes care of page number sequencing, recto, verso, and run-on article or separate-page article.

Author Proofing

We enable authors and editors to proof check the PDF files using our customized author proofing tool – KITABOO Edit. This e-proofing platform helps reduce the correction rounds and turnaround time (TAT) in the author review stage. 

Key highlights of KITABOO Edit-

  • All the corrections are recorded with track changes
  • Triggers automatic emails to the author for review and completing their process
  • Production Editor can monitor the article status any time
  • Corrections cannot be submitted with unanswered queries
  • Authors/Editors can insert and delete comments

The various review workflows are configured within the platform depending on the journal/book requirement: 

(a) Author review and PE review

(b)  Author review, Journal Editor review, and Production Editor review 

(c)  Journal editor review, Author review, and Production Editor review 

(d)   Author Review, Journal editor mail alone, and Production Editor review

(e)  Both Author Review and Journal Editor review at the same time and Production Editor review

Leverage our typesetting services to make your content print-ready.
