Data Processing Services

At Crius Group we don't just stick to converting or entering data. We are also proficient in processing that same or other data.
Our operators perform Data Processing Services on a daily basis. These include conversions to eBook formats, XML processing and enrichment and technical editorial support for structured data.

 

eBook conversion

As publishers look to new forms of distributing their content eBook and eReaders are reaching adulthood and getting widely accepted. Creating eBook versions of new books is fairly easy, our web2print solution for books, CORE, even generates eBooks for free.

But what with all the books that have been printed in the past? What with all that legacy content laying on the shelves?
Crius Group offers a solution. We convert to different eBook formats (ePub, MobiPocket) from PDF or from typesetting files. We preserve images and include a table of contents, index (both with clickable hyperlinks) and metadata.

 
 

XML Enrichment

Do you struggle to make your XML as rich and valuable as it could be? Does your DTD or Schema provide elements and attributes that hardly ever get used because no one takes the trouble to implement them? Does your automatic conversion or transformation leave some gaps that need to be filled?
These are well known and recurring issues. 

It's only fair you don't expect your authors to use every XML feature in your applications, they write content. Automated conversion also has its limits. The human reader of text for interpretation can not be replaced with a machine.

Our operators have been working with XML for more than a decade.
Not only do they understand the ways of XML and XML editors, they are also DTD aware.
Before we tackle a project we instruct them in the use and functionality of your DTD or Schema.
Being used to processing XML content they can enrich the structure of your XML content.
They move through files at lightning speed and when we are done your XML is compliant to your standards and makes full use of all functionality therein.

 
 

Technical Editing

Your content is worth much more if you can easily refer to related content.
Users will utilise your system more if you can take them further.
The relations between content are the added value in an extensive database

Going through all of your content and documents to link them to other content units or sources takes a lot of time and requires accuracy. Not a job for content designers and creators to waste their time on.

We at Crius Group have been doing exactly this job for years. Our people know how it works.
