Julie Hinds: Thank you!
Jo Ripoll (Inera): https://www.inera.com/events/inera-webinars/
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): 1638-pt font???? How is that even possible?
Sylvia Hunter: Gotta admire the persistence of authors, generation after generation, in finding new ways to do superscript
Sylvia Hunter: IT IS A MYSTERY, ULYSSES
Luciano Panepucci: ????????????????
Sylvia Hunter: A MYSTERY FOR THE AGES
Robin Dunford (Inera): It’s a limit in Word
Joel T. Luber (he/him, Duke Univ. Press): Do a lot of billboard makers use eXtyles?
Robin Dunford (Inera): The font of the offending style was set to 12,170 points
Robin Dunford (Inera): Which is over 14 feet tall
Susie: BINGO
Jo Ripoll (Inera): Wow, that was fast, Susie. Email it to me at [email protected]
Jo Ripoll (Inera): Wow, I think I made bingo too easy this year ????
Jennifer Seifert (Inera): [email protected]
Sylvia Hunter: @Robin that is ASTOUNDING
Luciano Panepucci: I’m one down to bingo..
Ron Keller: That’s a bingo. =)
Jo Ripoll (Inera): Gotta email it to me for it to count for prizes!
ForsbergCB: Hoping this means a decoupling of Word crashes (Word crashing in the middle of an Advanced Processing routine or during export), taking both down!
Luciano Panepucci: Does the automatic language detection also works on trans-title?
Kevin O’Donovan: Any thoughts regarding connecting eXtyles to Google Docs?
Luciano Panepucci: ah, ok.
Sylvia Hunter: Palabras claves?
Luciano Panepucci: Palavras-chave
Luciano Panepucci: 🙂
Rob O’Donnell: Do you see desktop eXtyles becoming less of a priority for Inera/Atypon with time, as more resources are dedicated to cloud solutions?
Luciano Panepucci: thanks
Kevin O’Donovan: I was just curious. 🙂
Robin Dunford (Inera): Google Docs also doesn’t require an Office license
Luciano Panepucci: What does major update of DEPARTMENT tagging?
Luciano Panepucci: yes
Luciano Panepucci: will it auto-detect departments?
Luciano Panepucci: I’m potentially happy
Luciano Panepucci: THANKS
Rob O’Donnell: Doesn’t everyone want automatic ROR retrieval??
Bobbie Jo Hanks: What’s ROR?
O’Connor, Charles (ELS-HBE): ROR ROR ROR ROR!
Joel T. Luber (he/him, Duke Univ. Press): we don’t even print affiliations . . .
Sylvia Hunter: https://ror.org/
Bobbie Jo Hanks: ahhh okay
Sylvia Hunter: ????
Luciano Panepucci: it surrelly can
Luciano Panepucci: it’s a licensing and dev thing…?
Luciano Panepucci: not yet thank goD!
Luciano Panepucci: scielo loves new things
Luciano Panepucci: coffee!
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): WHISKEY
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): no, just kidding
Liz Blake (Inera): … or is he?
Jo Ripoll (Inera): Save that for the reception!
Flash talks: Around the World with Inera
Luciano Panepucci: eXtyles Custom will be per client docuimentation!?!??
Luciano Panepucci: Will/is this 64bit work ported to eXtyles Lite?
Jo Ripoll (Inera): Not quite that specific, unfortunately because they are so customized, but all of the potential modules that are available in eXtyles Custom will be in the documentation
Bruce Rosenblum: no. we discontinued lite a while back
Luciano Panepucci: ah, ok. I didn’t remember about that..
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): OneDrive/SharePoint compatibility would be very nice!

Laurent Galichet: I need this….. end 2022….please….!
Luciano Panepucci: extyles cloud input files need to be previouly tagged?
Joel T. Luber (he/him, Duke Univ. Press): What is XML-based peer review?
Ken Rawson: Do you use DITA to help create your documentation?
Bill Fox: Not tagged, just Word
Monica Mungle: What is the timeline for 64-bit eXtyles?
Bill Fox: XML Peer Review: Using an XML document further upstream in the document editorial process
Pat Gibbons: Will 32 bit be sunset?
Luciano Panepucci: does ARC automatically handles complex tables and author’s excess of crativity and design?
Monica Mungle: Thanks!
Sylvia Hunter: “Author’s excess of creativity and design” is such a delightful way of expressing that
Luciano Panepucci: thanks!
Luciano Panepucci: is it powered by an arc reactor?
Robin Dunford (Inera): (Quickly googles Arc reactor…)
Robin Dunford (Inera): No, it is not, sadly
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): sounds like a part from the Back to the Future DeLorean
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): “the flux capacitor has disconnected from the arc reactor!”
Liz Blake (Inera): hahaha
Bill Fox: Iron Man
Problems & Solutions
Luciano Panepucci: I know extyles exports cell background colors, buyt does it also exports text facing color?
Anna Glover; USGS (sie/sie): Last time we allowed authors to have font colors, it did not.
Joni Dames (Inera): You could use a character style and map that to something custom in the XML, but there’s currently no way to capture just a font color (or size) override in Word and pass it through to the XML
Luciano Panepucci: extyles unrelated comment: we tend to discorage authors using color to convey significance.
Joni Dames (Inera): Yes, there are accessibility considerations with using text color to convey meaning
Luciano Panepucci: hmm…. appling a custom character style is interesting! Haven’t tought of that yet!
Robin Dunford (Inera): Some customers have already done that, and also have used character styles to preserve mid-paragraph font face changes
Luciano Panepucci: ????????
Luciano Panepucci: audio is cutting..
Ulysses Lateiner (Cell Press/Elsevier, he/him): ☝️
Jennifer Seifert (Inera): Thank you, Jo – it’s better ????
Louise Adam: The $$ “character” splits an affiliation into (1) Institution, and (2) location, as needed for re-import into the abstract system.
Jo Ripoll (Inera): I have changed the permission, so everyone is able to unmute themselves if they’d like to ask a question
Louise Adam: Will the wide-table solution be added to future builds for other customers?
Luciano Panepucci: Curious: how long to reprocess a document and check the PDF?
Luciano Panepucci: with typefi I mean
Bobbie Jo Hanks: Depends on the size of the doc
Bobbie Jo Hanks: Some run in a couple of minutes, longer docs can take an hour
Luciano Panepucci: ????
Anna Glover; USGS (sie/sie): Runs from a handful of minutes to half an hour or longer, depending on document size.
Bobbie Jo Hanks: and of course the server you have running the job would impact that as well
Bobbie Jo Hanks: but we get documents that are hundreds of pages, 50 figures and 100 pages of tables along. THOSE are the reports that take an hour
Luciano Panepucci: ah, ok!
Implementing eXtyles Arc
Luciano Panepucci: I’m curious also!
Caran Wilbanks: Our agency has that as the standard, and we have to work under an exception to use 32-bit. It is difficult to be sure that is what people get when they have to have their computer reimaged or they get a new computer.
Luciano Panepucci: WE just install 32bit for everyone to avoid the trouble
Luciano Panepucci: 🙂
Igor Kleshchevich (Inera): Ше шы зщгкштп тщц руку фе ДФ!
Igor Kleshchevich (Inera): It is pouring now here in LA!
Robin Dunford (Inera): I didn’t know it ever rained in LA!
Robin Dunford (Inera): Except in the movies
Ron Keller: I am!
Luciano Panepucci: I wonder how we manage to copyedit over 30K pages per year for 80+ different journals, without arc and with a small team of 12!
Luciano Panepucci: if you copyedit the generated DOC file after arc, how is the final XML generated?
Luciano Panepucci: ah, so arc does accept copyedited files in order to export only?
Diana: Can you elaborate on the comment about images export in doc vs docx?
Robin Dunford (Inera): @Luciano – in that case you would not need Arc (which is the automatic styling part). SI on its own could be set up to run just an XML export step if the files were already processed
O’Connor, Charles (ELS-HBE): Did say that you convert equations to MathType after Arc processing? Why not convert before or as part of Arc processing?
Ron Keller: There is a cleanup option to extract equation numbers from OMML equations, but it doesn’t work on MathType.
Ron Keller: If we convert at the end, we can take advantage of that feature.
O’Connor, Charles (ELS-HBE): ????
Luciano Panepucci: Thanks @Robin!
Ken Rawson: And they told me there would be no math!
Liz Blake (Inera): haha
Anna Glover; USGS (sie/sie): lol
Luciano Panepucci: Can you give as thje link for this plugin?
Robin Dunford (Inera): https://movemen.com/products/details/mathtools-2.0/
Luciano Panepucci: thanks
Eric Damitz (Typefi): https://movemen.com/
Eric Damitz (Typefi): They’re on v3 now
Robin Dunford (Inera): Thanks Eric!
