                       CALL for PAPERS
 
                     SGML & TeX Conference
 
                     Groningen, 31 Aug. 1990
 
 
 
This one-day conference starts -- after coffee, welcome etc. -- with a
survey about the relationship between SGML and TeX, now and in the future.
During the day we have two parallel streams (with 1/2 and 3/4 hour talks)
and for those wandering around there will be a vendor booth, a book stand,
a selling point for TeX `gadgets', and copying facilities for PD (TeX)
programs and of course an information booth.
The closing session will be about Electronic Publishing in the future with
a wink to SGML and TeX.
 
To celebrate the joint happening we will end with a nice `cocktail' party
offered by Elsevier and Samson Publishers.
 
Authors are invited to present a `paper' related to the theme -- SGML and
TeX -- and Electronic Publishing in general. We also welcome papers which
not exclusively address the preparation and printing phase of the
lifecycle of a document, e.g., papers discussing the interaction between
descriptive mark-up and database applications, reusable parts of documents,
and not to forget papers dealing with descriptive mark-up and Hypertext.
 
The conference language is Dutch (unless non-native) but transparencies
are in English.
 
TeX, LaTeX, Metafont (TUG-like) courses as well as  SGML courses are held
the days before and after. Conference and course program will follow in
due time along with registration forms.
