- Abstract
- Full text come in 2 varieties - the online style of full text, which often includes a compilation of text from many sources and which may growth into a very large database of text without pictures, and the CD-ROM style of full text, which usually represents a single journal, book or series but often includes graphics, especially if the title is a text book or encyclopedia from the original publisher. Neither type of product encompasses the ideal - 'full' full text, which could be described as a variety of sources with all accompanying tables, figures and illustrations, and complete use of references and logical links between documents. 'Full' full text would be researcher's ideal tool, making many of the theoretical advantages of computerized research into reality. The impediments to realizing the ideal full text product are rooted in the variant production processes at publishing and printing house. Printing and production is still bound by their traditional status as an art, and even computerization has left open tremendous production leeway within a single changed systems, which means that a single title may exist in multiple, and incompatible, versions over a span of years. The technical challenges in producing 'full' full text are discussed, along with a strategy for standardization and the vision CD Plus has for the future of real, full full text
