A web service and collection of basic scripts to convert Word (XML or DOCX) to TEI.
Incompatible change: As of 2020-11-23, paragraph style names (w:pStyle/@w:val) are recorded in tei:p/@rendition,
the definitions in w:rPr are kept in tei:p/@style.
Incompatible change: As of 2021-09-06, heading levels and div structure are evaluated based upon the values given by w:outlineLvl in a paragraph preset or paragraph style; empty lines or a style called “Heading \d” will not suffice. Paragraphs not having a defined outline level are not recognized as headings.
- Import the scenarios into “transformation scenarios“
- applying “DOCX → Flat OPC” to a docx file will create a (very basic) flat XML file
Build the package using ant on build.xml. You can upload docx files via a web form or by POSTing them to cnvert2.xql
! The older zip:xml-entry function is available in Saxon ⩽ 9.5.1.1 while file:read-binary and archive:extract-text
require Saxon PE or EE ⩾ 9.6. If you do not have Saxon PE or EE, you currently have to use a different XSLT processor,
use oXygen (as it includes a recent version ofSaxon PE and EE), or use the web service implementation from within
eXist-DB or baseX as these implement the ExPath modules independently.
To convert a docx, apply docx.xsl to word-empty.xml (or any XML file) and pass the parameter filename with a path
to the docx to be converted.
apply basic transformation scenario to docx or apply wt0.xsl and wt1.xsl to any flat Word XML
