==Introduction==
River Valley have a XML complaint production tracking system known as `RVMS' which means `River Valley Management System'. It can import XML coversheets and bookin a new job. It can render the coversheet. So we request XML coversheets from our clients.
==What is XML coversheet?==
XML coversheet means, coversheets in XML format which are accompanied with the manuscript for typesetting. Metadata is tagged using XML elements. The XML file can sometimes be a well-formed XML or a DTD/XSD driven one.
==Advantages of XML coversheets==
XML coversheet poses lot of advantages.
# All meta informations are tagged properly.
# This can be easily generated from the manuscript submission systems without any re-keying.
# This can be used for booking in an article in any XML complaint production tracking system.
# The tagged informations can be extracted or re-used in the further stages of production.
# Since the original data is used, typos can be avoided and eliminates the further checking.
# Using XSLT, these coversheets can be rendered.
