Dear all,
A reminder for next week, our next meeting is* Tuesday 9 September 14.00
CEST*. *This is our Plenary session. *These quarterly sessions include
presentations from your fellow group members.
This next plenary is by Bertrand Caron who will be presenting how TIB –
Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University
Library are handling validation errors returned by JHOVE:
“One way of handling validation errors returned by JHOVE or other
validation tools is to correct format structures. This operation is
delicate, requires an in-depth knowledge of analysis tools and format
specifications, and might lead to damage and information loss if not
performed with enough caution. Nevertheless, in some cases, for example
when the file rendering is obviously affected by erroneous structures, this
operation can be necessary. Elaborating on the previous work done by [group
co-Chair] Micky Lindlar, I will present several use cases of PDF and TIFF
repair that had major impact on the file content. I will discuss the
importance of a broad range of tools available, the risks identified when
performing these operations and a suggested ideal development of a file
“repair” process.”
We hope you have all had great summers, and hope to see you there! As
always, let me know if you have any questions.
Best wishes,
--
