ekdosis
is a LuaLaTeX package designed for multilingual
critical editions. It can be used to typeset texts and different layers
of critical notes in any direction accepted by LuaTeX. Texts can be
arranged in running paragraphs or on facing pages, in any number of
columns which in turn can be synchronized or not. In addition to printed
texts, ekdosis
can convert .tex
source files
so as to produce TEI xml
-compliant critical editions.
Database-driven encoding under LaTeX then allows extraction of texts
entered segment by segment according to various criteria: main edited
text, variant readings, translations or annotated borrowings between
texts. It is published under the terms of the OpenBSD license.
