| The present generation of Publishers who use an XML-first workflow adopts one of two approaches. Either pages are flowed entirely automatically in the typesetting software or some level of manual intervention is allowed to improve the visual appearance. To preserve the integrity of the XML in the latter approach, processing instructions can be inserted into the XML. These are invisible to an XML parser and then can be left in the XML or stripped out automatically at the time of final delivery. |

| Project Management
|
| |
 |
| Project Management is our job. When you outsource publishing services, we reduce your spending excessive hours watching over. At DIGITAL LINKS, our editorial and production managers from start to finish are obsessive about guiding projects to success. |
| |
| For many projects, providing discrete editorial services meant time lost in sending work back and forth from India to the publisher to the author to the publisher to India at each correction stage, so we have developed project management capabilities that allowed us to work directly with authors throughout a project’s lifecycle. These later developed to include print management services, making us a full-service supplier from manuscript to print services. |
