Steps of the project

  1. Text transcription from Old French to modernized french
  2. Encoding in TEI-XML:
    • text structuring
    • encoding of metadata
    • encoding of abbreviations and graphic normalisations in order to preserve the original spelling and to propose a standardised spelling
    • indexes of names of characters, animals and events mentioned
  3. ODD's creation according to the RelaxNG scheme
  4. Writing a HTML documentation to present the encoding choices and the various ways in which the project could be exploited.
  5. XML to HTML with XSLT
