I received the message from EBSCO
They requested to send them FT XML. What plugin can I use?
OJS 3.3.0.18.
Thank you.

Hi @Zhanneta_L_Kozina,

I think “FT” in this context means “fulltext”. EBSCO likely wants JATS XML, or an equivalent.

OJS does not currently include typesetting tools, so does not have access to the fulltext of the article for anything beyond search indexing purposes. You’ll need to generate the fulltext XML using a tool outside of OJS. (The JATS Template plugin and OAI JATS plugins in combination might provide a useful starting point – they’ll generate a JATS document without the body text – but you’d still need to complete the document yourself.)

This will change starting with OJS 3.6.0, which will include typesetting tools.

Dear Alec,
Thank you very much for your reply.
If I understand correctly, creating full-text xml now takes a lot of time and effort. So it makes sense to wait for version 3.6.
Thanks again :blush:
