Hi all,
We’re just finalizing some plans for this that we can communicate in more detail.
In short – we’re working with the team behind OS-APS to break that monolithic application into a more neutral-stack body text editor, which we’ll be integrating into OJS. (OS-APS is an Open Source conversion/editing/typesetting toolset deriving from SciFlow.)
The import conversion to ingest a word processor document for processing in the editor is a little bit less fully formed yet, but we’ll be piloting an approach in the near future.
For the export conversion (HTML and PDF), we’re looking at generating the HTML for presentation within OJS using a fairly simple approach, then using Vivliostyle to typeset that into PDF.
Regards,
