Open Source Academic Publishing Suite

OS-APS enables XML-based workflows for media-neutral publishing (e.g. Open Access) without technical expertise and cost-intensive XML editing and content management systems. Corporate design can be controlled via existing typesetting templates or in detail with a template development kit.

The OS-APS STEMO enhancement project, funded by the BMBF from 09.2023 - 08.2025, is working on a better support for complex formulae, tables and images. Another focus is on the accessible design of the produced publications and the provision of an OS-APS online reader based on JATS/BITS-XML.

OS-APS can be tested live, hosted on its own or be extended under the MIT license (source code).
