Automatic journal issue assembly: cover, contents and papers
Issue assembly needs a defined process after papers are ready. Issue details, sections and article order inform the cover, contents and combined PDF. Editors approve the final publication.
Prepare issue details and article order
Agree sections, ordering and the PDF version for each paper. Cover and contents layouts follow the journal’s design. Check page ranges and article titles in the assembled file.
Assembly and publication are separate stages
In the verified workflow, editors initiate assembly, review the generated file and approve publication. Automation reduces manual merging while preserving final editorial control.
Frequently asked questions
Can an existing issue also be split into articles?
That is a separate workflow for extracting article boundaries and metadata from a complete PDF. We review a sample and tailor the extraction and review process.
