An increasing demand for accessible content
Publishers and organizations have to provide accessible content:
• to a wide range of user groups• through various distribution channels• to an increasing variety of devices• in several output formats
![Page 4: DAISY Consortium Open Source Projects](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062503/55493bfcb4c905144d8b4e1a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Several output formats
• DAISY 2.02• DAISY3 (formally DAISY/NISO Z39.86 2005)• upcoming DAISY 4 distribution format• EPUB• Large print• Braille• …

Requirements for production tools
Efficiency:•produce many documents in a short timeLow costEasy to develop and easy to maintainVersatility:•produce several formats, integrate in heterogeneous systems

Collaborative Projects
A strong international collaboration allows to:• lower the development cost• increase software quality• answer the heterogeneous community needs• leverage the available skills and resources

Strategy for Software Developments
• Open Source projects• Member organizations’ contributions• Permissive licensing: allows both non-profit
and commercial reuse• Vendor neutral approach: use of standards,
cross-platform software

A Comprehensive Tool Suite
• Interactive Authoring: Obi, Tobi• Automated Authoring: Pipeline• Validation: ZedVal, Pipeline• Player: AMIS

Objectives of the DAISY Pipeline
• fully automated processing• modular pipelined conversions• support a wide range of input and output
formats• promote the "single source master" approach• extensible and customizable

Pipeline 1 : An Established Solution
• Project launched in 2005• Widely used in the DAISY Community• Many third party contributions• Successfully integrated in larger applications (e. g. “Save as DAISY”)

Pipeline 2 : The New Generation• Fundamental redesign towards an enterprise-grade solution• Focus on platform neutral standards (W3C Xproc, XSLT,…)• Improve the interoperability with the mainstream• A first reference implementation of DAISY 4• Better support for EPUB• Progressively increased functionality (Braille, TTS production)
