Abstract
Typesetting and printing of research content in the legacy era was done mainly as a means of disseminating information, with pages playing a central role. Visual clarity and structural precision were essential in presenting content effectively. With the introduction of the Internet and other societal changes, this objective evolved into a broader set of purposes, reshaping how information is shared, accessed, and experienced. This has resulted in the shift in the legacy nature of typesetting of the research content, paying less importance to the visual clarity or the beauty of the pages. In this article, we will explore the evolution of typesetting practices in the Internet age, focusing on the challenges introduced by the changing dissemination models. We will also examine the XML-first workflow and highlight Primo--a purpose-built tool designed to create visually appealing pages while adapting seamlessly to both the current XML-first workflow and emerging technologies.
