The Rockefeller University Press (RUP) has adopted Sheridan's revolutionary XML- based article workflow, Article Express™, for The Journal of Cell Biology, The Journal of Experimental Medicine, and The Journal of General Physiology.
ArticleExpress is Sheridan's new patent-pending workflow for STM publishers that replaces the traditional PDF-based article proof with a fully editable, browser-based, HTML proofing environment. In this new workflow, authors, editors, and publishers can easily review and directly edit article content in a browser application while still maintaining the structure of the underlying XML. In addition to reviewing and editing traditional article content, the HTML presentation allows authors to review online-only elements such as multi-media content, supplemental material, and a variety of linked elements.
RUP's leading scientific journals are the first in the STM journal community to implement ArticleExpress, and the staff at RUP has worked closely with Sheridan during the development of the workflow.
In addition to the browser-based editing environment, ArticleExpress also includes a fully automated, XML-based composition system that produces a PDF for download and review, as well as final PDFs for print and online delivery. As changes to content are introduced, reviewed, and approved through the web-editing environment, the underlying XML is automatically updated and revised PDF proofs are generated. So while traditional composition and proof review processes can get bogged down in rounds of proof correction and review, ArticleExpress streamlines the process completely, thus bringing published content to audiences more rapidly.
