brute-force application of cheap computer power but
also from the direct application of a host of computer

publishing era, followed by an appraisal of those
computer science topics which have already been applied
to problems in typesetting and publishing, and those
which seem poised for exploitation and application in
the near future. The importance of abstract notions and

and sort them into proper alphabetic order. The

help with the original creation of index terms. The
implementation runs on the UNIX\registered{} operating
system. It uses a long pipeline of short {\bf awk}
programs rather than a single program in a conventional
language. This structure makes the programs easy to
adapt or augment to meet special requirements that
arise in different indexing styles. The programs were
intended to be used with {\bf troff}, but can be used
with a formatter like {\TeX} with minor changes. An

systems that are oriented to an author's preparation of

systems commonly have incorporated simple
representations---an unconstrained linear list of
document objects in the `What You See Is What You Get'

directed at the interactive manipulation of richer
tree-oriented representations in which object
relationships are constrained through grammatical
specification. The advantage of such representations is
the increased flexibility that they provide in the
reusability of the document and its components and the
more powerful user commands that they permit. We report
on the experience gained from the design of two such
systems. Although the two systems were designed
independently of each other, a common set of issues,
representations, and techniques has been identified. An
important component of these projects has been to
examine the {\WYSIWYG} user interface, retaining the
naturalness of their user interface but eliminating
their dependencies on the physical-page representation.
Aspects of the design of such systems remain open for
further research. We describe these open research
problems and indicate some of the further gains that
may be achievable through investigation of these
document representations.",

abstract = "Much of the research taking place in the field called
`electronic publishing' would perhaps be better called
`electronic printing' or `electronic typography' or
`electronic drawing' or `electronic file cabinets'. The
word `publishing' has traditionally meant `to make
generally known' or `to disseminate'. In December 1985
I began a venture in true electronic
publishing\emdash{}`true' in the sense that its primary
goals were to explore electronic dissemination rather
than electronic typesetting or formatting. I wanted to
start a periodical that could be distributed
electronically, that would use computers for every
aspect of its production and distribution process, and
that would be on a topic of wide enough interest to
attract subscribers in as many countries as possible.
Furthermore the topic had to be absorbing enough to
engage my own interest for long enough to gain
substantial experience. The chosen topic was cookery. I
began a weekly magazine whose contents are recipes. To
submit a recipe for publication, a prospective author
mails the recipe to the editor by electronic mail. The
publishing process from that point is similar to more
ordinary magazines. A copy editor rewrites the recipe
for stylistic consistency and then hands it to the
`international desk', which checks to make sure that
the recipe uses only ingredients that are widely known
and internationally available. The international desk
also converts recipes to or from metric units, so that
every recipe will include both. From the international
desk, the recipe goes to a `test and proofreading'
office, at which an editor checks to make sure that the
recipe is coherent and comprehensible and that the dish
it describes is palatable. Finally, recipes are moved
to the production office, where they are bundled into
issues in time to meet a Thursday publication deadline.
During this test period I have done all of the
editorial tasks myself, but the internal structure of
the publication system is such that different people
could do the different tasks without disrupting the
flows and procedures. The recipes are distributed in a
text formatting language, and each subscriber is sent
software to format that language into some output
format that he can print on his machine. Subscribers
typically extract the recipes out of each weekly issue
and put them into a local database, from which they can
print pages for a notebook or access the recipes with
online retrieval commands. The text formatting language
is a dialect of {\em troff}, and the vast majority of
subscribers use a special set of {\em troff\/} macros
to do the formatting. The publication is called {\em
The USENET Cookbook}. It has about 13~000 subscribers
worldwide, and has had recipes contributed by about 300
different people. Most of the subscribers are in
English-speaking countries.",

computer provides opportunities for the exploitation of
parallel processing. It is straightforward to identify
blocks of material such as complete diagrams or
paragraphs of text which can be processed in parallel
and which have modest requirements for synchronization
and communication between the blocks. The features of a
problem which lead to an elegant and efficient
application of parallelism are identified, including
good locality of reference, a small `state vector' of
shared global variables and a clear relationship
between the material on the page and the `cost' of
processing it. This last-named attribute enables a
problem to be partitioned among multiple processors by
a static compile-time analysis rather than relying on
costly run-time allocation strategies. The {\PIC}
program for line diagrams has been modified to allow
for such a static allocation and to permit
synchronization and rendezvous between multiple
invocations of the program. The aim of this was to
investigate whether worthwhile gains in performance
would result from subdividing a diagram drawn with
{\PIC} and then processing the various portions in
parallel. A series of benchmark timings is presented
which show the degree of overlap obtainable in
processing separate parts of a diagram together with
the inherent limits to parallelism imposed by the
`atomic' entities in {\PIC} and the inevitable
communication overheads between the parallel processes.
The design features of the {\PIC} language are
identified which made it suitable for these researches
and we are able to draw certain general conclusions
about desirable properties of text and graphic entities
which are to be processed in parallel. This in turn
enables us to identify design features of the
underlying software which will facilitate parallel
processing.",

structures. These may arise, at one level, because of

a lower level as a result of the layout conventions by
which the text is formatted. These structuring regimes
may be seen as defining a set of constraints which a

paper we examine the model recently proposed in
Reference \cite{Koo} which is used for representing and
modifying electronic documents. This employs simple
graph grammars as a means of translating changes in the
document structure into modifications to the computer
representation. The aim of this approach is to provide
computer support which will allow the appropriate
structural conventions to be preserved while the
document is being edited. We consider the following
problem with this method: given a set of `constraints'
which the document must satisfy and a collection of
rules prescribing how the document representation may
be modified, how does one prove that {\em only\/}
documents which obey the constraints can be generated
by repeated applications of the rules? We describe one
way in which this question can be more precisely
formulated and call this the {\em consistency
checking\/} problem. It is shown that, in general, this

Standard that specifies a language for document
representation. The main idea behind SGML is to
strictly separate the structure and contents of a
document from the processing of that document. This
results in application-independent and thus reusable
documents. To gain the full benefit of this approach,
tools are needed to support a wide range of
applications. The Standard itself does not define how
to specify the processing of documents. Many existing
SGML systems allow for a simple translation of an SGML
document, which exhibits a 1--1 correspondence between
elements in the SGML document and its translation. For
many applications this does not suffice. In other
systems the processing can be expressed in a
special-purpose programming language. In this paper the
various approaches to processing SGML documents are

There are three different methods available for getting

The advent of intelligent font scaling requires us to
ensure the `optical' quality of a font and also the
`numerical' quality of its data; this, in turn, means
that new procedures have to be added to the font
production process. Furthermore, a given typeface has
to be rendered on a wide variety of output devices
ranging from computer displays, printers (dot-matrix,
laser, inkjet or thermal-transfer) and typesetters (CRT
or laser) to the more exotic devices such as plotters,
vinyl-cutters and routers. To deal with this it is
necessary to set up a database of font data, in a
machine-independent format such as IKARUS\@. This
enables us to cope with the long life cycles of
typefaces and also to serve present and future
applications by converting the IKARUS data into various
machine-specific formats.",

search. The latter is implemented using a processor
farm, so that documents which match at the signature
level can be examined in parallel to determine whether
they are, in fact, a good match for the query. The
results demonstrate that communication is the critical
factor in all of the transputer networks that were
investigated. A high degree of speed-up can be obtained
when only the pattern-matching search is carried out.
When text signatures are used, however, the speed-up is
less, decreasing in line with an increase in the size
of the text signatures that are used.",

example of the type of material that might be covered

for automatic update of a document with database
contents: whenever a modification occurs in the
database data referenced from the document text, the
document is updated accordingly. The {\bf ALIVE} user
interface has been implemented by exploiting the
functionality offered by the Interleaf\registered{}
technical publishing environment, providing the user
with a fully integrated environment. It allows the user
to browse through a description of the available
databases and to formulate queries related to data
stored in them by means of a menu-based interface. By
enriching technical publishing features with data
consistency controls in a uniform way, {\bf ALIVE}
moves towards the integrated desktop concept.",

is able for format multilingual scientific documents,
containing text in Arabic or Persian, as well as other
languages, plus pictures, graphs, formulae, tables,

system is an extension of {\tt ditroff/ffortid} that is
already capable of handling Hebrew in the context of
multilingual scientific documents. {\tt
ditroff/ffortid} itself is a collection of pre- and
postprocessors for the UNIX {\tt ditroff} (Device
Independent Typesetter RunOFF) formatter. The new
system is built without changing {\tt ditroff} itself.
The extension consists of a new preprocessor, fonts,
and a modified existing postprocessor. The preprocessor
transliterates from a phonetic rendition of Arabic
using only the two cases of the Latin alphabet. The
preprocessor assigns a position, stand-alone,
connected-previous, connected-after, or connected-both,
to each letter. It recognizes ligatures and assigns
vertical positions from a standard Arabic keyboard
using the standard ASMO encoding. In any case, the
output has each positioned letter or ligature and each
diacritical mark encoded according to the font's
encoding scheme. The fonts are assumed to be designed
to connect letters that should be connected when they
are printed adjacent to each other. The postprocessor
is an enhancement of the {\tt ffortid} program that
arranges for right-to-left printing of identified
right-to-left fonts. The major enhancement is
stretching final letters of lines or words instead of
inserting extra inter-word spaces, in order to justify
the text. As a self-test, this paper was formatted
using the described system, and it contains many
examples of text written in Arabic, Hebrew, and
English.",

means of communication, starting with hand-set metal
type and mechanical typesetting in hot metal.
Present-day techniques of phototypesetting, and of
digital typesetting, via cathode-ray tube and laser
machines, are also discussed. Careful attention is paid
to the cultural impact of these techniques, with
particular reference to traditional French typefaces
which often have small x-height and very thin hairlines
(which can disappear at small point sizes). Reference
is also made to the impact of each of these modern
typesetting methods on both `informational' and
`cultural' texts. A strong argument is presented that a
nation's typefaces encapsulate its national spirit and
its culture. For this reason, it is regrettable that
the advent of laser-driven imaging devices has brought
with it an `anglicization' of many fonts, via an
increase in x-height, and a reluctance to countenance a
non-linear variation of letterforms and set-width with
point size \emdash{} a characteristic so crucial to the
readability of classic texts. A plea is made for the
rapidly developing computer technology to be deployed
in the interests of {\em quality\/} as well as {\em
quantity}. Modern techniques have all the advantages of
photographic sharpness but this must be harnessed to
the traditional subtleties of the original typeface
design if the intentions, and the cultural identity, of
the typeface designer are to be truly respected.",

In order to be effective, this support must provide a
variety of capabilities that are not offered by the
current generation of database management systems. We
report on a prototypic system called HB1 that has been
designed to meet the storage needs of advanced
hypermedia system architectures. HB1 is referred to as
a hyperbase management system (HBMS) because it stores
and manipulates information and the connectivity data
that link information together to form hypermedia. HB1
is composed of three subsystems: the Object Manager
(OM), Association Set Manager (ASM), and Storage
Manager (SM). OM and ASM are both server processes
accessible to distributed client processes via IPC
interfaces. OM is an object server. ASM manages
structural data applicable to the objects within OM's
repository that are involved in hypermedia connections.
Physical storage is managed by SM which, in this
implementation, is a semantic network database
management system. HB1 instantiates a conceptual model
of hypermedia that is distinctly computational, has a
strong notion of anchor and link, and abstracts
information, behavior, and structure from hypermedia.
It has been used as a back-end for an open,
object-based hypermedia system that implements
distributed, inter-application linking. HB1 is proving
to be an effective vehicle for research on HBMS
organization.",

quality degradation when rasterizing the font at small
point sizes, because they do not incorporate a hinting
mechanism to adjust the outlines under these
circumstances. In this paper, we present an
experimental study on a hinting mechanism specially
designed for Chinese-style characters. We propose a
scheme which automatically generates the hinted outline
data from the plain outline fonts. We have implemented

in the series took place in 1989 at Lausanne,
Switzerland (organized by Roger D. Hersch, EPFL) and in
1991 at Boston, Massachussets (organized by Robert A.
Morris, University of Massachussets at Boston). The
corresponding proceedings are published by Cambridge
University Press (see below). Digital typography is a
relatively new field: the first commercial
cathode-ray-tube photo\-composing machine appeared in
1966. Since that time, the field has been growing very
fast, and is still active. During the RIDT'89
conference, emphasis was laid on the rasterisation of
outline characters and on rendering techniques. RIDT'91
concentrated more on digital halftoning and on
greyscale characters. However, both of these
conferences bore in mind that beyond the mathematics of
shapes and their rendering, printing types exist with
their own aesthetic rules. That is why the
presentations were made by a mix of technologists,
scientists and designers. The RIDT'94 programme
committee tried to attract a similar mix of papers when
this conference was launched. As expected, the fields
have moved on since the last conference, but we hope
that the selected papers adequately exhibit the present
state of the art in raster imaging and digital
typography. In the recent past, formal research in
digital typography has dealt with graphical algorithms,
such as the rendering of outline characters and the
generation of outline characters from bit-mapped
drawings, to name but two. Present research focuses on
models and methods for concise but precise font
description and modelling. That trend began in industry
with font interpolation programs and font systems such
as Adobe Systems' Multiple Master technology. This
research definitively belongs to computer science, with
keywords such as {\em object orientation}, {\em regular
expressions}, {\em string matching\/} and {\em shape
parameterization}. A look at related fields, such as
computer-aided design, shows that there still remains
plenty of mathematical research to be done in digital
typography. Mathematics is already used in CAD to
express aesthetic criteria, both at the local
(individual curves/surfaces) and the global level, for
ensuring overall appearance and design consistency.

the reading speed, scanning speed, accuracy and
comprehension at the 0.05 level. These results are in
contrast to the assumption that romans are more legible
than sans serifs. They can be interpreted as promising
for graphic designers and typographers, as it appears
that legibility will not necessarily be sacrificed when

surface defines tree structures as marked parts of the
underlying structure, and maintains consistency between
the network and tree structures; (2) the surface
monitors users' walks in the underlying network and
marks the trails to define tree structures; and (3) the
defined tree structures work as structured documents.

efficiency of a document structure analysis system,
which intends to analyse the complete logical structure
of a document. The usage of fuzzy logic improves the
system robustness; however, the problem of system
efficiency was revealed to be critical. Different
techniques have been studied to overcome this problem.
Dynamic programming, heuristics, and dynamic threshold
are used for parsing, which achieves a linear
complexity. A new concept of key step, based on the
principle of sub-goals, is incorporated with a
multi-pass and mixed top-down analysis strategy, which
avoids the combinatorial explosion of the number of
search paths. Finally, the paper shows that the
error-tolerating parser based on an analysis graph
seems more realistic and efficient than an
error-correcting parser.",

sorting of segments into classes according to their
slopes and, finally, composition of black and white

purposes are obtained by evaluating the regularity of
the font through statistical analysis of features such
as stem widths and stem angles. Knowledge about the
location of stems and analysis of outline parts between
stems is used in order to produce automatically
appropriate grid constraint rules (hints). The
presented outline analysis and stem extraction
