'''What is the Rapid Typesetting service?'''

Although Michigan Publishing focuses on creating and hosting XML-encoded versions of publications for our partners, readers still benefit from the ability to print copies of articles that they'd like to engage with deeply. While they can certainly print a copy of the web version of an article, a version typeset for print is more attractive and easier to use once printed.
+
-
 
+
-
Some of our publishing partners already create a typeset version of their publications.  Others, however, lack the resources or expertise to do so.  To help fulfill that need, Michigan Publishing offers the Rapid Typesetting service to our partners at a small additional cost.

Rapid Typesetting offers:
+
-
 
+
-
* The ability to represent complicated layouts in print format  (including justification, fonts, spacing, image placement, tables, endnotes, and footnotes.)
+
-
 
+
-
* One XML-driven process for the entire publication, making publishing workflows simpler and saving time and cost.
+
-
 
+
-
* A single point of contact (Michigan Publishing) for both online and print-ready versions.
