Oxford University Press Text Capture Instructions

 

Endpapers

Endpapers are unpaginated pages at the front (before prelim pages) and at the back (after the index) of a book.

frontMatter/miscMatterGroup/miscMatter[@class="other"]
endMatter/miscMatterGroup/miscMatter[@class="other"]

There are three categories of endpapers:

  • Inside front cover material
  • Inside back cover material
  • Other unpaginated pages

Inside front cover material is defined as the first TWO pages that you see when you open the book. ie. The inside of the front cover and its recto page.

Similarly the inside back cover consists of the inside of the back cover and its verso page.

Inside front/back cover material is usually provided separately from the rest of the book and is marked as such. It is usually created as a separate PDF.

Capture all content on the front endpapers in a single miscMatterGroup group within the frontMatter section. This should be separate from the miscMatterGroup group that contains the front matter.

Capture all content on the back endpapers in a single miscMatterGroup following the indexGroup element.

Endpapers are unpaginated but indicate page breaks between them using the processing instructions and because there is no pagination, a pageId attribute is not required. Indicate blank endpapers by inserting an extra processing instruction.
