HISTORY
Originally the following documents were created for the 6th CJK DOCP meeting to explain what is CJK DOCP, since it was the first CJK DOCP held in Singapore and a number of new members were expected to participate:
- CJK-DOCP/94-30,
- CJK-DOCP/94-31, and
- CJK-DOCP/94-32.
The documents include scope, meaning and activities of the CJK DOCP.
Those documents were merged into CJK-DOCP/95-5 and distributed in the 7th CJK-DOCP meeting in Kanazawa, Japan. The CJK-DOCP/95-5 is revised and updated to be this document.
1. Scope
Standardization for East Asian document processing technology required for document interchange among Asia Pacific countries, intending to apply ISO/IEC JTC1/SC18/WG8 developed standards to East Asian document environments.
2. Organization

- SGML description for CJK documents
- CJK multilingual hypermedia documents
- Fonts of CJK documents
- Document style for CJK environment
- Glyph treatment for CJK environment
- CJK multilingual linguistic-markup
- CJK multimedia application
3. Liaison
CJK DOCP takes liaisonship with:
- ISO/IEC JTC1/SC18/WG8

5. Importance for standardization of East Asian specific issues on document processing and interchange
ISO/IEC JTC1 standards are developed enough generically to be applied to a number of applications in a number of countries. When actually using them, we face to some requirements for specification on details. As far as domestic document processing and interchange are concerned, the detail specification and profiling can be defined within a domestic committee. When we treat such documents as could be interchanged among several countries, however, we have to define the detail specification with the discussion performed by the experts of related countries.
As for East Asian documents, there is strong requirements for their interchange, and besides there is technical similarity in their processing. The East Asian specific issues in document processing and interchange based on ISO/IEC developed standards are:
(1) Logical Documents described by SGML and HyTime
- treatment of multiple octet coded representation of East Asian characters
- description of corpus structure and identification or registration of corpus attributes
(2) Specification of Formatting and Laying out
- vertical alignment and the related formatting, e.g., mixture of vertical and horizontal alignments
- inline notes and top notes
- mixture of descriptions with different types of alignment lines, e.g., mixture of center-aligned Japanese description and base-aligned English description
(3) Hyper Document
- description of relationship between corresponding objects in interlaced or separated multilingual documents
- location specification in character stings which consist of different languages
(4) Fonts
- definition of additional properties required for performing East Asian formatting and laying out
- East Asian common font(s) for interchanging SPDL documents without distortion of page image
6. Procedure to create CJK recommendation
At the 5th meeting Prof. Ju proposed a question about how to create CJK recommendation on multilingual documents. Major points of his question are:
- Project editor is an expert of document processing and standardization. However, he is not always enough knowledge about multilingual documents.
- Even in each member country, it is almost difficult to discuss about multilingual documents.
After the discussions in the meeting, we concluded that the following procedure makes it possible to develop CJK recommendation on multilingual documents:
- (1) Project editor drafts the recommendation with his capability on languages.
- (2) After the discussion on it within CJK DOCP, it should be distributed in each member country for review from the coutry's point of view.
- (3) Each country provides comments on it to CJK DOCP and the project editor.
- (4) The project editor provides disposition of the comments to CJK DOCP. CJK DOCP discusses and accepts the disposition.
- (5) According to the disposition, the project editor revise the recommendation to complete it.
If necessary, the step (2)-(5) should be repeated.
