Overview of Topics Covered

A wide range of topics from markup, xhtml source file creation, production with all three of the DAISY Consortium production tools, to validation and regeneration were covered in depth. Strengths of each of the tools and how these strengths can be of use to benefit a producing organization were stressed throughout.

Both the Validator and Regenerator were received very positively. File management, the essentials of proper project management and workflow were discussed in detail as input prior to the course made it clear that this was an area that needed to be carefully addressed and the course was customized accordingly.

A "problem" book that had been produced by the organization was used as an example of how the Regenerator can correct many of the problems that can be introduced into DAISY DTBs.
