ISO 12083 (informally known as "AAP markup"[1]) is an international SGML standard for document interchange between authors and publishers, featuring separate DTDs for books, serials, articles, and math.

History

In 1983, the Association of American Publishers (AAP), a coalition of book and journal publishers in North America, launched the Electronic Manuscript Project, the first effort ever to develop a commercial SGML application.[2] The project sought to create a standard for document interchange that would allow the publishing industry to reap the benefits of descriptive markup, which was seen as “the most effective means of establishing a consistent method for preparing electronic manuscripts which can feed the publishing process.”[3]. Key participants in the project included organizations such as the US Library of Congress, the American Society of Indexers, the IEEE, the American Chemical Society, the American Institute of Physics, and the American Mathematical Society.[2]

In 1983, Aspen Systems Corporation was hired to conduct the work over a two-year period. Two preliminary works with restricted distribution were produced in 1985, the draft AAP DTD[4] and author guidelines.[5][6]

In 1986, the Electronic Publishing Special Interest Group (EPSIG), a consortium sponsored by the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC), recommended the DTDs developed by the Electronic Manuscript Project be used as an American Standard.[2] With the support of the AAP and the Graphic Communications Association (GCA), the recommendations were accepted and, in 1988, the AAP DTD became the American National Standards Institute's Electronic Manuscript Preparation and Markup (ANSI/NISO Z39.59) standard. Being based on the ASCII character encoding standard, it includes a large set of entity definitions for special characters.[7]

The AAP and EPSIG continued their collaboration and published a revised version of the specification in 1989,[8][9][10][11] identifying three document types in the field of pubishing: Book, Serial Publication, and Article, for each of which the revised specification offers a DTD.[12]

The AAP and the European Physical Society (EPS) further collaborated on a standard method for marking up tables and mathematical notation in scientific documents.[12] Building on this work, Eric van Herwijnen, then head of the text processing section at CERN,[13] edited the specification for adoption by the International Organization for Standardization as ISO 12083, first published in 1993,[7] revised in 1994[14] and last reconfirmed in 2016.[15] ISO 12083 features four DTDs: Article, Book, Serial, and Math.

Usage

In practice, ISO 12083 is seldom used in its pure form, yet it is the basis of many DTDs in common use.[16]
