The Document Vault
was intended to provide the basis for the
flexible creation and use of on-line, multi-media documents. In
particular, a mechanism for the inclusion of arbitrary types of
information into a document is needed to support standard archiving and
distribution practices on the Internet. The basic Vault features
include:
- A definition of Vault objects composed of standard file types (images, sounds, text, LaTeX, data, multi-part, etc.) and appropriate headers.
- A definition of documents as one or more objects assembled into a particular structure.
- A definition of methods appropriate to each object necessary to manifest a document into
- Whatever target context is required (PostScript, HTML, ASCII, DVI, etc.).
