A method for automating text markup

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Markup languages based on XML are increasingly popular, and languages for other formats such as RDF are under active development. One of the problems involved in converting legacy documents to use XML or other markup formats is the insertion of tags into the document and the consequent rearrangement of text required when markup is added to an existing, un-marked-up document. This paper describes a method for automating part of the process of marking up such legacy documents. The approach is designed for semi-structured text documents, for example, technical documentation and narrative descriptions.
