26、UCTION Markets for multimedia e-book and e-publishing require standardization of formats for e-book data interchange among related parties; authors, data preparers, publishers and readers. The formats are classified into submission format, generic format and readers format. The submission format has

27、 to support an interaction between authors and data preparers. The generic format has to provide an interchange format for data preparers and publishers and therefore should be reading-device-independent. The readers format depends on e-publishing equipment. BS EN 62524:201162524 IEC:2009(E) 7 MULTI

28、MEDIA SYSTEMS AND EQUIPMENT MULTIMEDIA E-PUBLISHING AND E-BOOKS READERS FORMAT FOR E-PUBLISHING 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a readers format for multimedia e-publishing employed for e-book data interchange among publishers and readers, satisfying a number of readers requirements su

29、ch as being non-revisable, equipment-adaptive and application-adaptive. NOTE This International Standard does not address the following issues: elements necessary for final print reproduction only; rendering issues related to physical devices; metadata issues for document management; security issues

30、 such as DRM for document. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

32、NOTE An editor is an example of preparer. 3.2 multimedia e-book multimedia content consisting of text, graphics, sound and/or video data 3.3 publisher organization or person that issues and distributes an e-book 3.4 reader the final user who reads the e-book 3.5 readers format format for multimedia

34、multimedia e-publishing (IEC 62229) defines a contents creation/distribution model shown in Figure 1. Author Data preparer Publisher -(3) Reader Figure 1 Contents creation/distribution model In the third step of the distribution chain, the publisher creates the final version of the document in the r

35、eaders format, based on data obtained from the generic format in the previous step, and finally distributes it to the reader. There can be several distinct readers formats, adapted to the various reading devices and distribution schemes. Because of reading devices potential limitations, some readers

36、 format may lack support for certain features of the corresponding generic format. It is the publishers role to determine how to convert an e-book to a less capable format. 4.2 Requirements for readers format The readers format can satisfy the following requirements of readers: a) non-revisable As t

37、he readers format is the final form of the document, which will be used only for viewing, there is little point in it being revisable. What matters most is that the file should be easy to process, even if this makes editing the data more difficult. Being revisable can even be considered a problem, s

38、ince it makes the format needlessly complex. b) equipment-adaptive, application-adaptive The readers format is directly processed while the reader browses the book. For that reason, to maximize the readers comfort, the format should be specifically designed to match the capabilities of the device, i

39、n terms of CPU power, memory foot-print, display size, etc. For example, a format targeted at a device with weak processing abilities should, in order to keep the memory and CPU requirements low: (1) Use a light special purpose binary structure, rather than processing-intensive formats like XML, (2)

40、 store the pre-calculated position of the elements, rather than compute the layout on the fly. On the other hand, if the target reading device is a high end processing system like a PC, a format allowing for rich multimedia effects would be preferred, since it can easily be handled. c) legibility To

41、 achieve a sufficient level of reading comfort, it is important that the readers format pays attention to legibility on the reading device. In that regard, the following implementation methods can be considered. Fixed page layout The format defines the document so that each page of the document may

42、be rendered identically on any reading device. In this type of layout, it is common to record directly in the file the actual position of all displayable elements. Generally, as the publisher can specify precisely the final aspect, he will set the layout that is deemed to be the most comfortable for

43、 the reader. Consequently, complex designs can be achieved, as long as the display is as large as, or maybe larger, than the designer expected, making it possible to reach excellent levels of legibility. On the other hand, if the actual display is smaller than the one the document was designed for,

44、it must be zoomed out, IEC 190/09 BS EN 62524:201162524 IEC:2009(E) 9 possibly making some characters unreadable, or the reader has to scroll around the document, reducing the reading comfort. Flowing layout In this type of layout, the reading device dynamically determines, according to the screen s

45、ize, where line breaks should be inserted, and compute the resulting position of the various elements. The final layout therefore depends on the screen size, font type, font size, etc. The reading device usually has a set of rules to handle word wrapping or hyphenation (ends of lines). Even though t

46、his layout model cannot achieve designs as sophisticated as fixed page layouts, it can guarantee that the text will remain clearly readable, whatever the screen size. It also usually gives more customization options to the reader, letting him set parameters as the font size or colour, making it more

47、 easily adaptable to individual readers preferences. On the other hand, the publisher somewhat loses control over the final appearance of the document. Others Intermediate solutions also exist. For example, a format could specify what is essentially a fixed layout when the screen is large enough to

48、display the defined layout at the current zoom level, but also allow, when zooming in, to change the layout (by collapsing the margins or changing the paragraphs size, for example), so that the characters can indeed be zoomed in, without making the page larger than the screen. 4.3 File format A read

49、ers format may have a specific data structure depending on the reading device. When rendering functionality is supported by reading devices, both logical structure and style specification are recommended for flexibility of presentation. When no rendering functionality is supported by reading devices, the readers format should have a final form structure. The for
