Tei2html Stylesheets

Synopsis

tei2html is a collection of XSLT 2.0 style sheets to transform a document encoded in according to the TEILite DTD (with some extensions) to HTML. Specifically developed to create a monolithic HTML document for posting on Project Gutenberg, but are also capable of generating ePub files from the same source with a similar look and feel. In line with the type of material Project Gutenberg deals with, these style sheets are designed to deal with encoded pre-existing works, rather than works created digitally from scratch.

Features

• Generate monolithic HTML output from TEI
• Generate ePub output
• Generate word-lists and KWIC indexes from TEI text.
