Counts

Definition

Metadata wrapper element to hold all the “counts”, that is, how many of something appear in an article, for example, the number of figures, tables, equations, words, etc.

Remarks

Many elements in this DTD Suite were created explicitly for import conversion, that is, so that the intellectual work of tagging done by publishers would not be discarded when they converted material from another DTD to an archival interchange or repository DTD created from this Suite. The count elements are a perfect example of this rationale; they are conversion elements and should only be tagged if present in the original source.

Related Elements

Inside the <counts> wrapper element are the counts of various components of the article: the <fig-count> is the number of figures, the <table-count> is the number of tables, the <equation-count> is the number of equations, the <ref-count> is either the number of references or (more properly) the number of citations in the bibliographic reference list, the <page-count> is the page count, and the <word-count> is the number of words in the article.
